Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. After being assured that being dead was not compulsory, Mort accepted. However, he soon found that romantic longings did not mix easily with the responsibilities of being Death's apprentice.

The oldest and most inscrutable empire in the Discworld is in turmoil, brought about by the revolutionary treatise 'What I Did On My Holidays'. Workers are uniting, with nothing to lose but their water buffaloes. Warlords are struggling for power. War (and Clancy) are spreading throughout the ancient cities.

The Ghost in the bone-white mask who haunts the Ankh-Morpork Opera House was always considered a benign presence—some would even say lucky—until he started killing people. The sudden rash of bizarre backstage deaths now threatens to mar the operatic debut of country girl Perdita X. (nee Agnes) Nitt, she of the ample body and ampler voice. Perdita's expected to hide in the chorus and sing arias out loud while a more petitely presentable soprano mouths the notes. But at least it's an escape from scheming Nanny Ogg and old Granny Weatherwax back home, who want her to join their witchy ranks. Once Granny sets her mind on something, however, it's difficult—and often hazardous—to dissuade her. And no opera-prowling phantom fiend is going to keep a pair of determined hags down on the farm after they've seen Ankh-Morpork.

Posledný kontinent Plochozeme je kategória sama osebe. Je tam horúco, sucho... veľmi sucho. Kedysi tam bolo niečo, čo volali Mokro, ale dnes už naň nikto neverí. Všetko, čo v tých končinách nie je jedovaté, je smrtiace. Ale inak je to bohovská paráda, fakt v pohode miesto. Až na to, že o niekoľko dní zhynie. Alebo že by nie? Ktože je ten hrdina pochodujúci červenou púšťou? Šampión v strihaní oviec, jazdec na koni, cestný pirát, hltač piva, slávny lupič, niekto, kto dokonca celkom za triezva zje utopenca? Muž v klobúku, za ktorým cupitá jeho Batožina, sa chystá zmeniť dejiny. Áno... jediné, čo delí toto čarovné miesto od súdneho dňa, je Vetroplaš, neschopný čarodejník, ktorý má aj na klobúku pravopisnú chybu. On je posledný hrdina. Ale inak... v pohode, nie?
