One of my absolute all-time favorite books in the world. Barely edges out The Truth to make it into the top three or four favorite Discworld books.

Maybe more like three and a half? But I'm feeling generous right now.

So far, the most focused Terry Pratchett book I've read. (The plot usually goes all over the place with Discworld novels). Here, the characters, viewpoints and settings are surprisingly sparse, which, in my opinion, is a plus, as it makes the story more understandable.

This book was not as funny as the other in the "Death" series (I suspect because of the wizards' absence, which was missed, not gonna lie) but I enjoyed its contemplative aspects very much.

(And I definitely won't ever forget about Rule One!)
