The classic, bestselling dark and hilarious take on mankind's final judgement by two genre giants, now an Amazon Prime Original / BBC TV production - written by Neil Gaiman and with a brilliant all-star cast!

GOOD OMENS SEASON 2 COMING 28TH JULY ON AMAZON PRIME.

The book behind the Amazon Prime / BBC Series starring David Tennant, Michael Sheen, Jon Hamm and Benedict Cumberbatch.

'Ridiculously inventive and gloriously funny' Guardian

What if, for once, the predictions are right, and the Apocalypse really is due to arrive next Saturday, just after tea?

It's a predicament that Aziraphale, a somewhat fussy angel, and Crowley, a fast-living demon, now find themselves in. They've been living amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and, truth be told, have grown rather fond of the lifestyle and, in all honesty, are not actually looking forward to the coming Apocalypse.

And then there's the small matter that someone appears to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .

Praise for Good Omens

Wickedly funny

TIME OUT

A superbly funny book. Pratchett and Gaiman are the most hilariously sinister team since Jekyll and Hyde. If this is Armageddon, count me in

JAMES HERBERT

Wow

WASHINGTON POST

Marvellously benign, ridiculously inventive and gloriously funny

GUARDIAN

Hilarious Pratchett magic tempered by Neil Gaiman's dark steely style; who could ask for a better combination?

Fear

Frequently hilarious, littered with funny footnotes and eccentric characters. It's also humane, intelligent, suspenseful, and fully equipped with a chorus of "Tibetans, Aliens, Americans, Atlanteans and other rare and strange creatures of the Last Days." If the end is near, Pratchett and Gaiman will take us there in style

Locus

Heaven to read, and you'll laugh like hell

Time Out

Not quite as sinister as the authors' photo

The Times
