I love this book! The first time I came across it, It was hidden in a corner in a bookstore. It Cried out to me. I Had to take it home. I Laughed so hard That I Cried, more than once. I loved it so much I gave it away. Which is an extraordinarily difficulty thing for me to do. Purpose wanted it to be shared, and I can not deny a book icts destiny. My brain, HOWEVER, is not so able of release. I Had to buy it again. And read it over and over and over. Until I gave it to my boyfriend, before We Were dating. And still, I read it at His house. When he forgot and gave it back to me, I cruelly About did not properly _him_. (It came back to me! It must be fate!) Now, there's a new edition out, with comments by the authors. I have to go get it.
I'm obsessed. It's unhealthy. I know. Come join me. It's the best you'll ever survive Apocalypse.
Crowley and Aziraphale-have-been locked in the battle entre good and evil since, well, at least The Beginning of Time. In fact, it's been so long That it's more of a debate Become Then a battle. Actually more of a conversation. Aziraphale is an angel, and part-time bookseller uncommon. It's a forehead; he really collects the books for himself. Crowley is sort of a fallen angel; well, as the book says "an angel Who About did not so much fall as saunter vaguely downward." So he's a demon, ish. Mostly he's an instigator. These two-have-been enemies for so long That They've Become pretty good friends.
Purpose that's all going to end. Everything is going to end. Next Saturday. That's When the Apocalypse has-been scheduled for. The final battle entre good and evil. What's an angel, demon gold to do When It Comes time to end the world, drank They really do not want to?
The Apocalypse is aided and thwarted, Alternately, by angels, demons, and an assortment of --other ridiculous, hilarious, pitiful characters. Newton Pulsifer, Witchfinder, armed with a stickpin. Anathema Device, Witch and owner of the only book of accurate prophecy ever to be written, until, she lost it. Agnes Nutter, author of book Said, semi-illiterate, or maybe just a really bad speller, and dead. The Chattering Order of St. Beryl, satanic nuns Who really just like to wear black. Dog Who Was, is gold, gold-have-been shoulds a hellhound. Adam, the anti-christ, DEPENDING on how the day goes. There's a lot more, drank I do not want to ruin the fun. Let's just say that good, evil, and prophecy are all Ideas that leave a lot of room for interpretation. And I'll never leave music in my car for too long again.
