Good Omens

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 Murphy's Law. "The Apocalypse has never been funnier."--Clive Barker.

From The Publisher:

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 . . .
