Death Needs a Vacation
Imagine a world where Death is not just an abstract concept but a person with a job-and he's getting tired of it. In the bizarre reality of Discworld, a flat planet carried through space on the back of four elephants standing on a giant turtle, Death is a seven-foot skeleton with glowing blue eye sockets who speaks in all capitals and has developed a curious interest in humanity. After centuries of collecting souls, he decides he needs an apprentice and some time off. Enter Mortimer-Mort for short-a gangly, thoughtful teenager whose body seems constructed primarily of knees and elbows, all operating with minimal coordination. Too philosophical for practical farm work (he wonders why teeth fit so perfectly together and why daylight comes during the day when it would be more useful at night), Mort stands alone at a midnight hiring fair when a mysterious hooded figure offers him an apprenticeship. Not in carpentry or blacksmithing, but in the family business of... mortality itself.
