absolutely adore the way gaiman and pratchett write about their characters. they describe quirks that are specific to each character so effortlessly and creatively. for example (my fav), in writing about DEATH’s voice:
“…his voice was a dark echo from the night places, a cold slab of sound, gray, and dead. if that voice was a stone it would have had words chiseled on it a long time ago: a name, and two dates.”
