 GOOD OMENS: THE NICE AND ACCURATE PROPHECIES OF AGNUS NUTTER, WITCH by NEIL GAIMAN  384 Pages

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 . . .

This book was turned into a series on Amazon Prime, the 2nd season is coming out next year, my family liked it so much that we binged watched the 1st season in one day! I liked the TV series better that the book, possibly because of the actors who portrayed the main characters. (Michael Sheen plays Aziraphale and David Tennant plays Crowley).
