I've read the Discworld series, so I'm going to sneak into Death's house and steal a look at my hourglass. Might snoop through a few of the books in the library too. Much more accurate, and it wouldn't violate *my* privacy.
Who wants me to check their hourglass while I'm in there??
I'd like to give an apple to Death's horse, Binky.

I do.
It's some of the best fun I have all year. The students pick up something that looks like an airport novel and don't know why we're going there, and then they find out as we move through it. And in the end they end up knowing exactly why.
Live the dream. I'll gladly supervise a senior PhD on Pratchett.

@Flowermob @SuneAuken @MaryAustinBooks Sure. If Vimes stands for anything, it's that life allows second acts.

A Pratchett post.doc. would be deeply interesting, too. There's the recurrent problem with funding and hiring - since we don't have the Ramkin's fortune available - but the topic itself is absolutely viable.
