Reaper Man by Terry Pratchett. HarperCollins Publishers: NY, 2008. 1st published by Victor Gollancz Ltd: Great Britain, 1991. Ultra-Condensed Death is terminated by the instigation of the Auditors, for developing a personality. As Death goes to work on a farm, spirits are left unattended. Lives pile up. The excess life energy is channeled into new growth, such as a shopping mall? Mrs. Cake and her premonitory speech Wizard Windle Poons, newly dead poltergeist, unexpected hero Interesting new verbal spell and stress reliever - Yo! How fast can you scythe grass, one blade at a time? You make a deal with Death, you better follow through. Beginning of the Death of Rats Counting Pines felled by ornamental house number plate industry related-Discworld, wizards, Death, life after death, life energy RL=YA-adult This book seemed slower to me than the average Pratchett. Maybe because I had too many interruptions. The Death scenes are great, and Windle Poons was interesting as a poltergeist (decidedly unwizardly), but the back and forth between those and the shopping carts bothered me. It didn't make sense to me until the end.
