Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The audiobook of Reaper Man is narrated by the BAFTA award-winning actor Sian Clifford (Fleabag; Vanity Fair; Quiz). BAFTA and Golden Globe award-winning actor Bill Nighy (Love Actually; Pirates of the Caribbean; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) reads the footnotes, and Peter Serafinowicz (Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace; Shaun of the Dead) stars as the voice of Death. Featuring a new theme tune composed by James Hannigan.
'Inside every living person is a dead person waiting to get out.'
Death has been fired by the Auditors of Reality for the heinous crime of developing…a personality. Sent to live like everyone else, Death takes a new name and begins working as a farmhand. He's got the scythe already, after all.
And for humanity, Death is just…gone. Which leads to the kind of chaos you always get when an important public service is withdrawn. 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…
The Discworld novels can be listened to in any order, but Reaper Man is the second book in the Death series.
The first book in the Discworld series—The Colour of Magic—was published in 1983. Some elements of the Discworld universe may reflect this.

Great follow-up to “Mort”
I’d really enjoyed “Mort”: this is a really enjoyable sequel. I’ve come to Terry Pratchett late and am enjoying catching up. Performances on this book were superb and production quality absolutely top notch. Absolutely recommended.

Fantastic
This is one of my all time favorite books. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and now there's this fantastic audio book.
I'm yet to find a Terry Pratchett creation that I haven't enjoyed. All who were involved in bringing this audio book to life have done him proud imo. Thank you so much.

The beauty of the end!
This is possibly my favourite story I have ever read/listened to. It is funny, introspective, bittersweet, and has possibly the most beautiful ending ever written.

I really enjoyed this modern version
Beautifully read and produced. The narrators work very well together in this audiobook. I'd forgotten just how wonderful the story itself is, too. Highly recommended.

Amazing!
"Mrs Cake? What is a Mrs Cake?"
"You have ... ghastly Things from the Dungeon Dimensions and things, yes? Terrible hazards of your ungodly profession?" said the Chief Priest.
"Yes."
"We have someone called Mrs Cake."
Ridcully gave him an inquiring look.
"Don't ask," said the priest, shuddering. "Just be grateful you'll never have to find out."
This book is an absolute pleasure. hahhaa
