Reaper Man (Discworld)

The book that got me started on Terry Pratchett and the Discworld series. He rocks my socks off. Or as Death would say, "HE ROCKS MY SOCKS OFF. IF I WERE ABLE TO WEAR ANY."

Hi-ho Binky away!! Nobody can bring the inanimate to life like Terry Pratchett. Although "the luggage" is my absolute favorite, Death is consistenly the most enjoyable. He grins, he leers....he becomes Bill! What's not to love? His attempts at family affection are just hilarious. If you're only going to follow one of the Discworld arcs..it should be this one.

Reaper Man is a fun read. There are two story lines: Death gets a new job and trolleys invade via snow globes. The trolley/wizard story line is amusing, but weak. Death working on a farm is hilarious! Entertaining.

When you read any of Pratchett's Disc-world books, you see Death. So, why not read a book that is totally devoted to Pratchett's most reoccurring character. He is truly the object of my hilarity in Disc-world...second only to the Witches. A grade.
