Book Description

1 May 1999 0552146722 978-0552146722

It's no more than a breath away...

Everyone needs a place to relax after a long day, after all. So here is the place where the Grim Reaper can kick back and take the load off his scythe. Here's the golf course that's not so much crazy as insane, and the useless maze, and the dark gardens - all brought (incongruously) to life. And here, for the first time ever, you will find out the reason why Death can't understand rockeries, and what hapens to garden gnomes.

As Death rides Binky into the sunset (of other people's lives), you can at last see what he gets up to when he's not at work.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pleasant but slight 11 Feb 2007
By Jane Aland VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
This fourth in the series of Discworld Mapps [sic] is a pleasant but rather slight affair. As usual there is a small background booklet by Pratchett which contains a few amusing details concerning Death's fascination but complete inability to actually 'get' human beings and their pastimes. The large fold out map of Death's house and garden is a nice picture, but ultimately compltely pointless as a map, and due to the nature of the location rather monotone in it's colour scheme. Ultimately a pleasant enough spin-off but a rather pricey one - just be aware that unless you are perhaps planning on detaching the map for use as a poster this book will provide you with no more than half an hours entertainment...

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice to have but shame about the detail 11 Jan 2000
Format:Paperback
I agree with Josh's comment, i think that this has not paid so much clear attention to the authors books and have just made something that would sell well beacause people 'collect'. Having said this it is still a good addition to my wall. I reccomend it to any discworld-o-holic.

2.0 out of 5 stars THERE ARE BETTER THINGS IN THE WORLD... 10 April 2000
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This book/map, which is the fourth map from the Pratchett multiverse, is for the avid reader who has all the books by Terry Pratchett and is desperate enough for more material ... The writing is excellent, as always, but there are only 23 (quick count) pages of it. The rest of the product (except for the title pages etc.) consists of a large map following the same standard as the three other maps. The problem with it is that it doesn't enhance the reading of the novels in any way at all. The first two maps, Ankh-Morpork and, to a lesser degree, Discworld, added to the fun by letting the reader follow the protagonists' journeys while reading the novels. This map from the domain of one of Discworld's most amusing and easiest recognizable characters does no such thing. It is nice-looking but nothing more. It doesn't really tell me anything more about Discworld than that the author has no intention to starve.

What I really would wish is a collection of the text-bits from the maps together with Terry's excellent short stories in one book. That way we could avoid all the empty filling.

Ok, here's the full quote, taken from the book:

Death: "THERE ARE BETTER THINGS IN THE WORLD THAN ALCOHOL, ALBERT"

Albert: "Oh, yes, sir. But alcohol sort of compensates for not getting them."

A map of Ankh-Morpork is essential. A map of Discworld is an excellent idea. A map of Lancre is interesting. A map of Death's Domain seems pointless. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars See Death before you Die
Death decided that he needed a place to live, so Death's Domain was born, just nobody is exactly sure precisely where it is. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Below average Pratchett, but that's still briliant
It's pretty good. I mean, Kidby's a brilliant artist, and getting the all-the-colours-of-black colour scheme to work at all should have earned him a medal of some sort. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Not terribly good value
Well, it's a pretty map(p), and the accompanying words are witty as ever, but at the price I do feel short-changed. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Death-o-rama
Death is my favourite character in the series, so I had to get this map. I think it is really good for those fanatics (of which I am one) of the Discworld who must get everything. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Hmmm...
Let's get the bad news out of the way. This is the weakest of the four maps so far. Not that I'm knocking it; it's good. But... The black on black colour scheme freaks me out. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice for the fans
Deaths Domain - a nice map, if a little lacking in sharp detail. The accompanying booklet, however, is very nice indeed. Read more
