Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch Audiobook

" If you’re like me and inaccuracies of any type really get up your nose, the good-natured sacrilege of Good Omens might be a drawback. None the less, you might succumb at last (as I did) to the genius wit and oddly relatable characters. Gaiman and Pratchett voice the things we often don’t dare say about what makes us want and what we're willing to do to obtain our objectives. This story uses fanciful scenarios and well-timed sarcasm to thinly veil a nice and accurate assessment of the human world. "

" I adored this book. I want to recommend it to several people I love and respect, as it was so pleasurable, so inventive, so witty. This makes me want to read everything by both Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchert. The story, the voices that tell it, the ideals, the observations are all genuine, insightful, and truly human. Read this book!! "

" Classic British sf/f. Many funny moments paired well with things that make you think with an ending that's unexpected and refreshing. "

" This book is very funny, but a bit all over the place. Jumping from story line to story line. it's not easy to keep track of what is going on. Regardless the smart humor will entertain for many hours! "

" Beyond excellent, hilarious, fantastic, I can't wait to ask Neil Gaiman to sign my old, worn copy this summer. "

" Oh my god! This is such a great book! I read this forever ago and I've re-read it so many times... I would love to see it made into a movie. "

" One of my favourite books - One of those books you read over and over(mine's in a zip-lock baggie) "

" very entertaining read, I just wish there were more books with these characters "

" This story was very funny to listen to because of the performance by Martin Jarvis. He brought each character to life in a sometimes wacky way! Neil Gaiman and Terry Prachett came up with a story that was fun to imagine could take place between heaven and hell, and people on earth. Fantastic! "

" This was a very, very funny book! "

" Such a great book,I have never laughed so much while reading a book and I just loved the story! "

" Most awesome author collaboration ever. You have to read every part of this book, footnotes and Character Lists included. The authors have so many awesome jokes hidden everywhere! "

" Very good, very British humor. Great ending "

" I don't what I could possiably write about this that hasn't already been said. "

" Awesome! Why did I wait so long to read this book? "

" Oh my god, amazing! It was just so well written, with a lot of humour and puns and even the author word was funny! "

" I've read this book at least five times now and I can return to it endlessly as it seems to take on a different character as I change through the years. I can't really say that of any other book. The most I've read any other book is twice. A dark and shining gem. "

" Loved to see, how apocalypse can be solved best by 11 years old Antichrist :) "

" I actually didn't finish it. It was funny, and very clever, but it didn't have enough plot. It felt like I was reading a joke book, or a book of quotes. Not a bad book, just not for me. "

" Simply brilliant! ^^ "

" Started out great, but for some reason, got a bit tedious from the middle onward. I think I was hoping for more Christopher Moore-like humor. There were lots of humorous quips throughout the book but I just felt like I had to work too hard to find them. "

" On the 3rd or 4th reading, this is still one of the funniest books ever. Pratchett and Gaiman's styles merge seamlessly into eachother creating "Nice and accurate" observations about humanity that get more true the more you object. "

" I wanted to like this book. I tried really hard to like this book. But it just never came together. I liked the premise, but it felt like the authors were competing with each other There were some chuckle-worthy moments, but in the end, it just didn't do anything for me. "

" Gaiman delivers again. Very funny! "

" It was witty and interesting, but it didn't make me laugh out loud. "

" one of the funniest books ever written i read at least every other year and it just gets better. an example of the whole being greater than the sum of it's parts. Gaimen= awesome, pratchett = awesome, together? amazeballs. "

" I didnt laugh out loud, but I loved it! Reminded me very much of hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy. I didn't think the storyline was that great but the writing was good enough that it didn't matter. "

" Love this book! My husband and I read it once a year! "

" This was an interesting collaboration work with a fun take on the coming of the Apocalypse. I liked the interplay between the angel and demon, Aziraphale and Crowley. "

" Smart writing, very British, entertaining. "

" Finished this the day of the "rapture". "

" Extremely witty, nice plot, but overall has the same type of obvious humor as Hitchhiker's Guide. "

" ¿Para cuando la película? :) "

" An entertaining parody of the Omen. What would happen if the child destined to bring about Armageddon got misplaced and grew up as a normal kid. Not as pun heavy as the Discworld series, but written to amuse both adults and older children "

" I thought this was going to be silly, but I stuck with it and enjoyed it very much. "

" Great story by two writers. You can tell which author wrote each chaper as they differ in style and tone. sometimes it seemed like they were chalanging each other to get the main character out of some difficulty. "

" So funny. Absolutely hilarious and completely unforgettable. Who could NOT like the demon symbol odegra, the Book, and the footnote describing Milton Keynes?Very British humour, but I think anyone with any sense of humour at all would love this! "

" Wanted a little more Gaiman and a little less Pratchett if you know what I mean. But really, they are so awesome. It was a fun read. "

" A funny take on the End of the World. Who knew what could go wrong with the "Great Plan"...read the book and find out. "

" It is good book. Definitely worth to read. Reminded me of TV show Supernatural. "
