Good Omens

Readers around the world have embraced the brilliance of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett since Good Omens was first published in 1990. Now their classic comic novel of the end-times -- the only collaborative effort of these two masters -- is available in a new mass market edition featuring two special covers for aficionados and new fans alike. 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 . . .
