Good Omens is a comedic tale of angels, demons, and the impending apocalypse, penned by the renowned authors Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. Based on the completely accurate prophecies of Agnes Nutter, the world is set to end on a Saturday—just before dinner.

Book Hero Magic created this recommendation. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! IS THIS YOUR NEXT READ?

This novel appeals to readers who enjoy witty, satirical fantasy with religious and apocalyptic themes. Fans of Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, and clever, irreverent humour will find it especially entertaining.

Book Hero thinking about your next read

From two delightful imaginations comes a comic masterpiece in which the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride motorcycles, the hound of the devil chases sticks, and the end of the world is subject to Murphys Law.

Reads like the Book of Revelation, rewritten by Monty Python. -- San Francisco Chronicle

The classic novel of angels, demons, and Armageddon from the internationally bestselling authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, now a Prime original series starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant.

Note: This book is available in different packaging, however, the content is the same.

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, and tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to the 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 . . .
