Death gets an apprentice, and hilarity ensues.
Reading guide
Mort is the first book in the Death series, but like all Discworld novels, it can be read independently or in any order.
The Death series follows the Discworld's Grim Reaper and his various apprentices as they confront cosmic bureaucracy, existential questions, and the baffling habits of the living, all told with Pratchett's signature blend of humor and heart.

Description

Terry Pratchett's Death series invites readers into a corner of the Discworld where the Grim Reaper is not a figure to fear but a bemused, cat-loving skeleton just trying to understand humanity. In this beloved humorous fantasy series, Death takes on an apprentice named Mort, setting off a chain of events that explores fate, love, and the ultimate absurdity of existence. With Pratchett's trademark wit and warmth, these novels transform the most dreaded figure in history into one of literature's most endearing characters.

Perfect for fans of comic fantasy and satirical adventure, the Death series blends action, philosophical whimsy, and laugh-out-loud dialogue. Starting with Mort, the books follow Death and his apprentices as they navigate the Discworld's peculiar rules of life and afterlife, always with a sharp eye on the quirks of human nature. This is a series that proves you don't need to be alive to have a great sense of humor.
