Readers can't put down Reaper Man:

'The second DEATH is as hilarious as the first one, this time positioning the friendly reaper in a perfect setting for having philosophical and deep thoughts about human nature and life in general' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'This book is full of really profound messages about life and death and making your life count, if only by giving others some of your time . . . due to the impeccable combination of profound messages, silly adventures and laugh-out-loud moments, it is simply perfect' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'This book does contain DEATH, the librarian, the Wizards and many more and is in my humble opinion (be it h'ever so 'umble) the best so far, a true masterpiece of literature' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'Behind the story of Death being fired for having developed a personality, there's a clever little parable about what it means to be human, to be alive' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'Oh my goodness the ending to this book is sensational. I cried. I cried A LOT . . . Brilliantly funny in parts, with a deep look at life and death, cities and people. It asks the big questions, the heavy questions. Yes, there is humour and silliness, too, but it is a very deep, meaningful book' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'This entry in the series has EVERYTHING - action, adventure, thrills, chills, and romance, in addition to the usual amount of rampant silliness one has come to expect from Pratchett' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
