'Cracking dialogue, compelling illogic and unchained whimsy' Sunday
Times The Discworld is very much like our own - if our own were to
consist of a flat planet balanced on the back of four elephants
which stand on the back of a giant turtle, that is . . . Death
comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. Death
is the Grim Reaper of the Discworld, a black-robed skeleton
carrying a scythe who must collect a minimum number of souls in
order to keep the momentum of dying, well . . . alive. He is also
fond of cats and endlessly baffled by humanity. Soon Death is
yearning to experience what humanity really has to offer . . . but
to do that, he'll need to hire some help. It's an offer Mort can't
refuse. As Death's apprentice he'll have free board, use of the
company horse - and being dead isn't compulsory. It's a dream job -
until Mort falls in love with Death's daughter, Ysabell, and
discovers that your boss can be a killer on your love life . . .
________________ The Discworld novels can be read in any order but
Mort is the first book in the Death series.
