Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

Now an Original Series on Prime Video. New Season available July 28th.

The classic collaboration from the internationally bestselling authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, now an original series starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant.

Season 2 of Good Omens coming soon!

"Good Omens . . . is something like what would have happened if Thomas Pynchon, Tom Robbins and Don DeLillo had collaborated. Lots of literary inventiveness in the plotting and chunks of very good writing and characterization. It's a wow. It would make one hell of a movie. Or a heavenly one. Take your pick."--Washington Post


According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.

So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon--both of whom have lived amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle--are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture.

And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .

Very enjoyable read, I was amused throughout and even laughed out loud a couple of times. I was, however, disappointed by the ratio of Aziraphale/Crowley storylines versus the rest. For that reason I prefer the TV show, where we get to see more of them.

I'm a sucker Biblical story mash-ups, because while I have serious concerns about anyone with a literal interpretation of religious texts, it's really fun to reinvent the characters, motives, and philosophical principles on which these well-known parables stand. I much prefer when religious narratives conclude with a big old question mark, rather than an emphatic exclamation point, and this book does just that.

Between Pratchett and Gaiman, I wond...read more

Good fun. So many lol moments. The middle third gets a little sluggish, but the last bit picks up nicely!!
