About this listen

'Death has to happen. Tha'ts what bein' alive is all about. You're alive, and then you're dead. It can't just stop happening.'

But it can. And it has. So what happens after death is now less of a philosophical question than a question of actual reality. On the disc, as here, they need Death. If Death doesn't come for you, then what are you supposed to do in the meantime? You can't have the undead wandering about like lost souls. There's no telling what might happen, particularly when they discover that life really is only for the living...

Critic reviews

'If you're an established fan, you'll enjoy this as much as the others; if you're new to Pratchett, what the hell took you so long?'
'One taste, and you'll scour bookstores for more'
'Pratchett's humour takes logic past the point of absurdity and round again, but it is his unexpected insights into the human morality that make the Discworld series stand out'

Very sad it was over. Going to buy more Terry Pratchett ready by Tony Robinson, what a wonderful story fully of comedy, warmth and depth. Blown away.

Excellent piece of art

Loved the narration. Perfect accompaniment to a relaxing holiday. An old favourite made new.

Still fabulous after years of re-reading.

This is the latest in the books I've " read" by Pratchett. After a slow start it gained my attention and yet again I enjoyed the narration of one of his books. On to the next!
