"Huge fun."--Sunday Express (London)"Irreverently funny and unexpectedly wise . . . Highly recommended."--Library Journal"Hilarious!"--Locus"Something like what would have happened if Thomas Pynchon, Tom Robbins and Don DeLillo had collaborated."--Washington Post"[L]ittle asides, quirky observations, simple puns and parody eventually add up to snorts, chortles and outright laughs."--San Diego Union-Tribune"Fiendishly funny."--New Orleans Times-Picayune"What's so funny about Armageddon? More than you'd think . . . GOOD OMENS has arrived just in time."--Detroit Free Press"If you've never read [GOOD OMENS], don't miss it now. Grade: A."--Rocky Mountain News"Full-bore contemporary lunacy. A steamroller of silliness that made me giggle out loud."--San Diego Union-Tribune"From beginning to end, GOOD OMENS is side-splittingly funny . . . a ripping good time."--Rave Reviews

The world is going to end next Saturday, just before dinner, but it turns out there are a few problems--the Antichrist has been misplaced, the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse ride motorcycles, and the representatives from heaven and hell decide that they like the human race, in a new edition of the classic novel, featuring a new afterword from the authors. Reprint. 50,000 first printing.

The world will end on Saturday. Next Saturday. Just before dinner, according to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies written in 1655. The armies of Good and Evil are amassing and everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture. And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist.

Put New York Times bestselling authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett together . . . and all Hell breaks loose.

Neil Gaiman is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of more than twenty books, including Norse Mythology, Neverwhere, and The Graveyard Book. Among his numerous literary awards are the Newbery and Carnegie medals, and the Hugo, Nebula, World Fantasy, and Will Eisner awards. Originally from England, he now lives in America.

Sir Terry Pratchett was the internationally bestselling author of more than thirty books, including his phenomenally successful Discworld series. His young adult novel, The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents, won the Carnegie Medal, and Where's My Cow?, his Discworld book for "readers of all ages," was a New York Times bestseller. His novels have sold more than seventy five million (give or take a few million) copies worldwide. Named an Officer of the British Empire "for services to literature," Pratchett lived in England. He died in 2015 at the age of sixty-six.
