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

After being assured that being dead was not compulsory, Mort accepted. However, he soon found out that romantic longs did not mix easily with the responsibilities of being Death's apprentice...

My Opinion

I like the cameo appearances that Death makes in other Discworld stories, so a book starring him should have been an instant hit, but it wasn't. I didn't find the story as interesting as other Discworld books I've read, but I'm not sure why.
