martin#Discworld re-read: Book 7, Pyramids.
Now's here a reference I didn't get the first time.
Also, this book follows directly on from Wyrd Sisters and both books use as a viewpoint character a king who dies and becomes a ghost, both of whom are rather thick in life but find greater clarity of thought in death.
Michelle / The Giddy Stitcher@martin Been rereading them in order and this really got me too, it's such a specific setup for a book and he does it twice in a row? Like, Pterry, did you not get all the possible jokes out of your system the first time around?!
Inc Hulk 🧪@martin I am sure that Sir Terry was pointing out how death clears the mind from all the troubles of living.
