Rating: 4.5/5

Death, The Pharmacist is a unique read. As the title of the book tells, Death is a living entity in the story and is a pharmacist. Death has mentioned about few humans who are constant and appear day after day at his counter to pick up their daily dose of life essence. Death is omnipresent. This helps him to manage the never ending line at the Pharmacy. To balance all life, human count needs to be reduced. Doctor suggested Death to kill a tenth of humanity in a handful of days. It’s Death’s job to kill.

One day, Death met a human Robinette. He became powerless and was not in his domain. She took him to places that made Death feel different. Death could leave his obligations behind at a place like this. Death is a character that is written well.

Cover photo of the book is suitable. Pace of the story is fast and I wasn’t bored anytime while reading it. The way death is described as a living character and his way of communicating with himself is interesting. This is an engaging read. Storyline is unique. I like to strongly recommend this book to others. It would be worth your time.
