When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. In the Discworld, the Grim Reaper is a black-robed skeleton with glowing blue eyes and a scythe who’s fond of cats and eternally baffled by humanity. He yearns to experience what humanity really has to offer, but to do so, needs to hire help.As Death’s apprentice, Mort will have free board, use of the company horse, and, best of all, another chance at life, because being dead isn’t compulsory.It’s a dream job—until Mort falls in love with Death’s daughter, Ysabell, and discovers that your boss can be a killer on your love life . . .The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Mort is the first book in the Death series. The collection includes:<ul><li>Mort</li><li>Reaper Man</li><li>Soul Music</li><li>Hogfather</li><li>Thief of Time</li></ul>

A Discworld Novel

Mort

“Engaging, surreal satire. . . nothing short of magical.”—Chicago TribuneWhat would happen without Death? The denizens of the Discworld are about to find out in this captivating entry in New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series.They say there are only two things you can count on: death and taxes. But that was before Death started pondering the existential. Now Death is facing his own demise, fired by the Auditors of Reality for developing a personality. Sentenced to live like everyone else, the entity formerly known as the Grim Reaper takes a new name and becomes a farmhand. He’s an expert with a scythe, after all.Frolicking in greener pastures, Death is having the time of his life. For humanity though, Death’s loss leads to chaos, the kind that always arises when an important public service is cut. But what happens if Death doesn’t come for you? What do you do when your time is supposed to be up?The undead can’t be left 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 read in any order, but Reaper Man is the second book in the Death series. The collection includes:<ul><li>Mort</li><li>Reaper Man</li><li>Soul Music</li><li>Hogfather</li><li>Thief of Time</li></ul>

Reaper Man

“Pratchett's writing is a constant delight. No one mixes the fantastical and mundane to better comic effect or offers sharper insights into the absurdities of human endeavour.”—Daily MailWhen the guy in the red suit goes missing the night before the Discworld’s favorite holiday, it falls on Death to take up the sleigh reigns in this wonderfully irreverent tale from New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett.Very few things are held sacred in the twisted, corrupt, heartless—and oddly familiar—universe of the Discworld, but the Hogfather is one of them. Each year at this most joyous of times, Hogswatchnight, the jolly, red-suited Hogfather hops into his hog-drawn sleigh. But this year, the old gift giver has vanished without a trace.Could it be that belief in the Hogfather is dangerously low among the cynical citizens of the Discworld, a place where superstition makes things work? That’s why Death decides to stand in. But it’s just not right to find a seven-foot skeleton creeping down your chimney bellowing “ho, ho, ho.”On this last night of the year, as the time is turning, it’s up to levelheaded Susan, gothic governess and Death’s granddaughter, to sort everything out by morning—or there won’t be a morning. Ever again . . .The Discworld novels can be read in any order, but Hogfather is the fourth book in the Death series. The full collection includes:<ul><li>Mort</li><li>Reaper Man</li><li>Soul Music</li><li>Hogfather</li><li>Thief of Time</li></ul>

The Kyiv Mysteries

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2024 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZEA Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2024"Very intriguing and atmospheric ... a fascinating read in the light of contemporary events.” –Alexander McCall Smith, Bestselling Author of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency"With its earthy prose and stunning attention to detail, this stands apart." –Publishers Weekly (starred review)From Ukraine’s most celebrated novelist, "a gift for crime fiction fans" (New York Times Book Review) that introduces rookie detective Samson Kolechko in Kyiv as he tackles his first case, set against real life details of the tumultuous early twentieth century.Kyiv, 1919. World War I has ended in Western Europe, but to the East, six factions continue to vie for control of Ukraine. Amidst the political turmoil, young Samson Kolechko is forced to place his engineering career on hold. But in the city of Kyiv everything remains up for grabs and new opportunity lurks just around the corner . . .When two Red Army soldiers commandeer his home, Samson’s life is completely upended. But as Samson juggles his personal life –including a budding romance with the ingenious Nadezhda, a statistician helping run the city’s census– with the soldiers’ intrusion, he winds up overhearing their secret plans. Deciding to report them, Samson instead finds himself unwittingly recruited as an investigator for the city’s new police force.His first case involves two murders, a long bone made of pure silver, and a suit of decidedly unusual proportions tailored from fine English cloth. The odds stacked against him, Samson turns to Nadezhda, who proves to be more than his match. Inflected with Kurkov’s signature humor and off kilter universe, The Silver Bone takes its inspiration from the archives of Kyiv's secret police, crafting a propulsive narrative bursting to life with rich historical detail.Translated from the Russian by Boris Dralyuk

The Riveter

"Being sixteen is always difficult, but it's even more so when there's a Death in the family. An orphan with a skeletal grandfather who rides a white horse and wields a scythe, Susan hasn't exactly had a traditional upbringing. When the Grim Reaper unexpectedly goes on sabbatical, running the family business falls to the schoolgirl, who shows real talent for the trade, even if everyone mistakes her for the Tooth Fairy. All goes well until she meets Imp, a boy with empty pockets and big rock-and-roll dreams who makes her heartstrings sing. Determined to devote his life to music, Imp forms a band, acquires a magical guitar, and quicky shoots to fame thanks to the group's addictive new sound. "Music With Rocks In." has an irresistible beat and you can dance to it. But it also changes people. And it's taking the Discworld by storm. . . "--

#1 International BestsellerLonglisted for the Aspen Words Literary Prize &amp; New American Voices AwardAmazon Top 10 Editors PickNamed a Best Book of the Year by Elle, Cosmo, Real Simple, Glamour, Conde Nast, Readers Digest, &amp; more"A premise that would (and should) translate well to a prestige television series."—Elle"The best...book I read this year was Gowda's timely and touching A Great Country."—San Diego Union-TribunePacific Hills, California: Gated communities, ocean views, well-tended lawns, serene pools, and now the new home of the Shah family. For the Shah parents, who came to America twenty years earlier with little more than an education and their new marriage, this move represents the culmination of years of hard work and dreaming. For their children, born and raised in America, success is not so simple.For the most part, these differences among the five members of the Shah family are minor irritants, arguments between parents and children, older and younger siblings. But one Saturday night, the twelve-year-old son is arrested. The fallout from that event will shake each family member’s perception of themselves as individuals, as community members, as Americans, and will lead each to consider: how do we define success? At what cost comes ambition? And what is our role and responsibility in the cultural mosaic of modern America?For readers of The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett and Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid, A Great Country explores themes of immigration, generational conflict, social class and privilege as it reconsiders the myth of the model minority and questions the price of the American dream.
