Death comes to everyone eventually on Discworld. And now he’s come to Mort with an offer the young man can’t refuse. (No, literally, can’t refuse since being dead isn’t exactly compulsory.)
Actually, it’s a pretty good deal. As Death’s apprentice, Mort will have free board and lodging. He’ll get use of the company horse. And he won’t have to take any time off for family funerals.
But despite the obvious perks, young Mort is about to discover that there is a serious downside to working for the Reaper Man … because this perfect job can be a killer on one’s love life.
