Good Omens

★ 8.9 27 ratings
尼尔·盖曼 / Terry Pratchett publishing house: William Morrow 2006 - 3
There is a distinct hint of Armageddon in the air. According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (recorded, thankfully, in 1655, before she blew up her entire village and all its inhabitants, who had gathered to watch her burn), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, the Four Bikers of the Apocalypse are revving up their mighty hogs and hitting the road, and the world's last two remaining witch-finders are getting ready to fight the good fight, armed with awkwardly antiquated instructions and stick pins. Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. . . . Right. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. </p> Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon -- each of whom has lived among Earth's mortals for many millennia and has grown rather fond of the lifestyle -- are not particularly looking forward to the coming Rapture. If Crowley and Aziraphale are going to stop it from happening, they've got to find and kill the Antichrist (which is a shame, as he's a really nice kid). There's just one glitch: someone seems to have misplaced him. . . . </p> First published in 1990, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's brilliantly dark and screamingly funny take on humankind's final judgment is back -- and just in time -- in a new hardcover edition (which includes an introduction by the authors, comments by each about the other, and answers to some still-burning questions about their wildly popular collaborative effort) that the devout and the damned alike will surely cherish until the end of all things. </p>

读过《Good Omens》 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕
太上头了停不下来,下一步可能是去听广播剧吧。读得慢完全是因为常常被萌到要去AO3找文看……书里的Aziraphale更冷酷,Crowley更心软,对世界的疑问和痛苦更多,但对angel的感情没那么外露,大概是Neil想表达失去Terry的悲伤吧。一见上司就怂的Crowley超可爱,Aziraphale的intelligent没人怀疑啦。提议一起保护人类的Azi是真·天使,以为要死了nice knowing you也太甜了吧。对于一闪而过路人的吐槽太入骨,虽然我知道这很重要但是天使恶魔以外的情节就随便吧。tv版和书比起来真是纯纯的true love story了,虽然想要更多糖但就结束在这个没有尽头的夏天也很好啊。
