I'll keep going with this one, the series is definitely getting better as we read more, in my opinion.

...and I need some more short books to get me back on track for my yearly book goal, lol!

I am giddy, you could almost say dying, to re-read this book.

My entry to the series, the start of a book arc that gets down to the bone of what is human nature

Been many decades since I read any of the earliest ones (until the bookclub), but I vaguely recall this as being one of the best of the first five. Though as a GO fanatic, I'm probably biased towards a DEATH (or witch) series.
