I started reading his books from the start again a few weeks ago after about 15 years of a break. The first few books aren't great because it feels like he hasn't quite decided yet what to do with the whole Discworld thing. The one mentioned above is the first where it feels coherent and his wit and craftsmanship with words come out. You are not missing any meaningful context by skipping the ones before.
