Reaper Man

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 has to happen. That’s what bein` alive is all about. You`re alive, and then you`re dead. It can`t just stop happening.`But it can. And it has.Death is missing – presumed gone.Which leads to the kind of chaos you always get when an important public service is withdrawn. If Death doesn`t come for you, then what are you supposed to do in the meantime?You can`t have the undead wandering about like lost souls - there`s no telling what might happen!Particularly when they discover that life really is only for the living . . .The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Reaper Man is the second book in the Death series.
