Death comes to us all. When he came for Mort, he offered him a job. As a young man whose ambitions far outweigh his practical skills, Mort is an unlikely candidate for any trade, let alone the Grim Reaper's apprentice. Assured that being dead is not a prerequisite, he accepts the position. He soon discovers that the role involves more than just wielding a scythe, as he must navigate Death's otherworldly domain, complete with an adopted daughter and a manservant who has been around for a very, very long time.

The work has its challenges, particularly the strict rule against interfering with destiny. When Mort is sent to collect the soul of a beautiful princess and makes an impulsive, compassionate decision, he sets off a chain reaction that threatens to unravel the fabric of reality itself. While Death takes an uncharacteristic holiday to experience what it means to be human, Mort finds himself grappling with the immense powers he's inherited and the catastrophic consequences of his actions. This story explores fate, mortality, and the peculiar complications of a young man trying to do the right thing when his boss is the ultimate reality.
