Death goes missing, and life has a hard time going on without him as Nigel Planer returns with his familiar voices in this Discworld novel. His straight and direct delivery accentuates the subtle and ironic humor that runs throughout this book. He moves with the characters through their seemingly real and almost ordinary tasks in pursuit of their rather unreal and far from ordinary existence. His voices and manner of interaction between the characters provide insight into the personalities and the range of emotions of each--as broad or constricted as the case may be. Reading this book would be a pleasure; listening to it is an even greater delight. J.E.M. © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
