Awaed wh fear by angelic Aziraphale and monic Crowley—iendly rivals who don't want their worldly tug-of-war to end—wh zealo hatred by Wchfr Sgt. Shadwell and harlot-massse-medium Madame Tracy, and wh ecstatic anticipatn by latter-day Nuttere Anathema Device and Newton Pulsifer, who bounc om Shadwell's employ to Anathema's bed, the apolypse looms—drippg wh throwaway allns, giggly footnot, and broad swip at the cle of the Wt. It's the ultimate Saturday night bummer, fueled by a miraculo thoand-ton theft of nuclear fuel and the termatn of Adam's gang Them to follow the trail of the Four Bikers of the Apolypse. Hilarly nghty, and jt what you'd expect om a llaboratn between ics-veteran Gaiman and fantasist Pratchett (Strata, 1981; The Light Fantastic, 1983). A bt-seller England, and a book to watch uld tch on wh the Douglas Adams crowd.
