A satirical comedy on the subject of death. It begins when Death decides to take a holiday and turns over the shop to his granddaughter, Susan, with the assistance of Death of Rats, a rat skeleton. Unfortunately, Susan does not have the stomach for such a heartless trade and this threatens the success of the establishment. By the author of The Light Fantastic.
The book is about music. About its perception, nature and evolution. Death here is secondary.
Tremendous amount of wit and fun, but also absolutely twisting, emotional and powerful scene that loops back to the beginnings, showing that Pratchett was writing with his heads up, to quote Don Cherry.
