Terry Pratchett

adventurous funny

A decent Terry Pratchett. Not my favorite, but an amusing read. Features Death, which is always good. A quick read, even when compared with other Pratchett novels.

I loved this book. Its funny and doesn't take itself too seriously despite the heavy topic. Having never read a discworld book I will definetly be trying out the rest of the series as this has me hooked.

Five stars
This was the first Terry Pratchett book I read. I love death, I love ysabell, I love mort, I love keli and Cutwell and Albert. This book is beautiful, it's unique its electrifying. Honestly I just love it and I don't think I can really write a review for it.

A really solid novel and my first by Pratchett - I just found it super hard to read and stick with it because I have really bad ADHD and the edition I purchased did not have chapters (seems like a common thing in Discworld). Death as a character is super funny and the ending of the story is a nice one. Just wish I could’ve had an easier time reading it.
