Mort

Mort - Terry Pratchett

On the Discworld, a flat planet carried by four elephants standing on the giant turtle A'Tuin, Mort gets an offer few people would consider practical: Death wants an apprentice. Reassured that taking the job does not require him to die first, he agrees, only to discover that the duties of Death are hard to combine with romantic ambitions.

Death takes on a trainee

Mort steps into a role that places him beside one of Pratchett’s most memorable figures. The novel builds its comedy around the gap between cosmic responsibility and one very human young man trying to manage it.

The fourth Discworld novel

Mort is the fourth book in the Discworld series and the one that firmly brings Death to the centre of the story, with Pratchett using the setting’s absurd scale and dry humour to turn the end of life into something sharply comic.
