Synopsis "Mort: The Play"

Adapted for the stage by Stephen Briggs, this tells the story of Mort, who has been chosen as Death's apprentice. He gets board and lodging and free use of company horse, and doesn't even need time off for his grandmother's funeral. The trouble begins when instead of collecting the soul of a princess, he kills her would-be assassin, and changes history.

His prolific work includes about seventy books, which have been translated into almost forty languages, and has sold more than eighty-five million copies worldwide.

In 2009, he was knighted by the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire for his services to literature. His secret? Nothing escaped the smart, relaxed, and ironic gaze of this author who, in the best British satirical tradition, subverted all genres. In addition to being the creator of Discworld and the series of stories set there, he is the author of the standalone novel Dodger and co-author, with Stephen Baxter, of the Long Earth series.
