   • bioText:

     Terry Pratchett (1948–2015) is the acclaimed creator of the globally revered Discworld series. In all, he authored more than fifty bestselling books, which have sold more than one hundred million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood by Queen Elizabeth II for his services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.

Mort

fullDescription

New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett makes Death a central character in Mort, another clever and fabulous installment in the Discworld series, where a cheerfully hapless young man discovers that work can kill your love life when your boss—and your girlfriend's dad—is the Grim Reaper.

Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. In the Discworld, the Grim Reaper is a black-robed skeleton with glowing blue eyes and a scythe who's fond of cats and eternally baffled by humanity. He yearns to experience what humanity really has to offer, but to do so, needs to hire help.

As Death's apprentice, Mort will have free board, use of the company horse, and, best of all, another chance at life, because 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. The collection includes:

Mort

Reaper Man

Soul Music

Hogfather

Thief of Time
