Soul Music

"Kindle readers beware." according to DB. I'm rating this with 1-star just to draw attention to the horrible quality of the kindle format. I'm halfway through the book and I've stopped counting the number of typos, missing quotation marks, run-on paragraphs, unnecessary line breaks C.M.O.T. Dribbler wouldn't even try to peddle this mess. I sincerely hope this is the only Discworld book that was edited by whatever poor sap was put in charge of this conversion.. If you like the other Death books or any of the offshoot Michael Murray Soul Music is the third book in the Death series of DiscWorld books and Pratchett continues his theme of Death giving up the afterlife to become lost in the living world. As usual this throws the balance of the universe into disarray and his grand daughter Susan is called into service. The book follows the story of "Buddy" a troubadour from the small country of Llamedos ("Sod 'em all" spelled backwards). Through a few patented Pratchett plot points "Buddy" finds a mystical guitar and sparks a musical movement in Ankh-Morpork. Of the four books in the death series this is the weakest. The story is a bit uninteresting an. Amazon Customer said So many errors. The book itself is fantastic. However, there's serious formatting and typography problems. There's a whole section in the middle where the pages are out of order, and this book (and A LOT of other Kindle books) is FULL of typos apparently caused by no one checking the text recognition software when they scanned the book to digital. I bought this book years ago and I'm still waiting on a corrected update.

It’s alive. It’s called Music with Rocks In. It’s hard to grow up normal when Grandfather rides a white horse and wields a scythe — and especially when you have to face the new and addictive music that has entered Discworld. It’s lawless. It changes people. And it won’t fade away.

--Blaise Selby. Susan Sto Helit is rather bored at her boarding school in the city of Ankh-Morpork, which is just as well, since it seems that her family business--she is the granddaughter of Death--suddenly needs a new caretaker. Soul Music is the 16th book in the bestselling Discworld series, with close ties to the fourth book, Mort
