The Antichrist
is scheduled to destroy the world but something went wrong with his upbringing
thanks to an unreliable demon.
As someone who usually loves Neil Gaiman but wasn’t crazy about the one
Terry Pratchett novel I read, I had never been interested in trying Good Omens,
written by the two of them. However, I heard that a TV series based on the
novel is being made, and it has some terrific actors, so I figured I'd read the
novel in order to decide whether or not I’ll be tuning in to the TV series. I
do believe I WILL give it a try!
I liked the novel. But I didn’t love it. I detected Pratchett’s forced comedy throughout (which was my problem with his novel I read). But, it had enough of Gaiman’s cool, creepy creativity that I did enjoy it by the time I finished it. The problem is that I couldn’t really get into it until about halfway through the novel. I persevered and I do think it has promise for being a fun TV series. After all, the series will not be able to include all those annoying, lengthy, tangential footnotes which I stopped reading after a while.
