Yes. That book culminates so perfectly. I love any and all scenes in the series that involve Death.

The light was brilliant, crystalline, in a black sky filled with stars.

"Ah. There really is a desert. Does everyone get this?" said Brutha.

WHO KNOWS?

"And what is at the end of the desert?"

JUDGMENT.

Brutha considered this.

"Which end?"

Death grinned and stepped aside.


I also love the scene in Mort as Mort and Ysabell, astride Binky, are racing against the night. The descriptions of light and darkness are exquisite, imaginative, and incredibly witty.
