at the very least, Witches Abroad (“Is this a trick question?” NO), Maskerade (ALL I HAVE IS FOUR ONES) and of course their final interaction in The Shepherd's Crown, which made me cry quite a lot
Other than Carpe Jugulum (which is next on my list), are there other books where Death and Granny interact?
