Comments & Further Information

A first UK edition paperback with a stated first publication in Great Britain.  Age tanning to pages.  Covers showing some signs of wear to the extremities.  Crease across bottom left-hand corner of rear over.  Vertical indentation (about 3 cm long) on the front cover at the bottom.  Ripple in the laminate on the spine (production fault?).

Adapted for the stage by Stephen Briggs.

SYNOPSIS:  “Death comes to us all.  When he came to Mort, he offered him a job.

But when Mort is left in charge for an evening, he allows his heart to rule his head and soon the whole of causality and the future of the Discworld itself, are at risk.  Along the way, Mort encounters not only Death’s adopted daughter, Ysavbell – who has been 16 for 35 years – and his mysterious manservant Albert – whose cooking can harden an artery at ten paces – but also an incompetent wizard with a talking doorknocker and a beautiful, but rather bad-tempered and dead, princess.  He also, of course, meets Death.”
