Mort (Discworld Novel 4) by Terry Pratchett – 1987 Hardcover Book Club Edition

Description Enter the whimsical and satirical world of Discworld with Terry Pratchett’s fourth installment, Mort. This beloved novel introduces one of the series’ most iconic characters: Death. When Mort, a socially awkward and tall young man, is hired as an apprentice, he thinks he’s finally found a steady job. The only catch? His employer is the Grim Reaper himself. As Mort learns the “family business”—which involves a scythe, a white horse named Binky, and a very literal deadline—he finds that being the apprentice to Death is more complicated than it seems. When he allows his heart to interfere with a scheduled expiration, he risks unraveling the very fabric of reality. This 1987 Hardcover Book Club Edition is a classic find for collectors of vintage fantasy. While the condition is noted as “OK,” this volume serves as a durable and charming reading copy for those who prefer the tactile feel of a hardcover over modern paperbacks. Pratchett’s signature wit, philosophical depth, and unparalleled world-building are all on full display in this pivotal story that truly defined the direction of the Discworld series.
