Reader reviews for Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch
Review summary
Readers broadly saw Good Omens as a witty, irreverent satire of the apocalypse, anchored by the charismatic pairing of Aziraphale and Crowley. Many praised its clever wordplay, humane perspective, and a collaboration that often feels seamless, with humor likened to Douglas Adams and Monty Python. Criticisms focused on an overlarge cast, digressive subplots, and uneven pacing—particularly a sagging middle and an ending some found rushed or underpowered. The very British tone and in-jokes divided opinion, and several readers felt the TV adaptation sharpened the focus, though many still value the novel’s quotability and re-read appeal.

From the publisher
From the rear cover
The world will end on Saturday. Next Saturday. Just before dinner, according to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655. The armies of Good and Evil are amassing, and everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture. Oh, and someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .
Put New York Times bestselling authors Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman together . . . and all Hell breaks loose. In a very good way.
