-But in the dark days o 1990, Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman decided to co-write a book - _Good Omens_, which itself will be a parody of the _Omen_ horror movie.
-It was quite the popular movie back then, but nowadays, it may be a bit forgotten.
-
-Pratchett & Gaiman seem like a great combo.
-The first one is a great story _teller_, while the later tend to provide better _stories_.
-They are also both imaginable authors of speculative fiction.
-
-The general idea of the story of the book follows the one from the movie: due to Satanist
-shenanigans, the antichrist is born to a family in power.
-The end of times in near.
-But, unlike the movie, it is not to be stopped by a detective but by an unlikely pair of an angel and a daemon.
-None of them want to see the apocalypse, so they join forces to stop the antichrist - who turns out to be quite a nice kid.
-
-For me, a computer nerd, the process of writing such a book is fascinating.
-It's 1990, so no cooperative tooling exists yet, therefore Terry and Neil had to send diskettes to each other.
-How cool is that!
-
-> I think this is an honest account of the process of writing Good Omens.
-> It was fairly easy to keep track of because of the way we sent disks to one another, and because I was Keeper of the Official Master Copy, I can say that I wrote a bit over two thirds of Good Omens.

-and it shows.
-_Good Omens_ does not read like a joint venture, it's distinctly Pratchett.
-You get Gaiman's love for the macabre and over-convoluted story, but if he were removed the cover, I would have never guessed.
-There is a scene of mass shooting, which is something fitting _American Gods_  but it's written like we're in Ankh-Morpork.
-
-It's not part of the _Discworld_ world, but on the surface it could have easily been.
-The humour is there, the seemingly unrelated descriptions which turns out to be an introduction to related thingies and so on.
-But the world of _Discworld_ is far more interesting, crazier.
-In that series, we've got an insane world and insane characters which try to remain sane.
-_Good Omen_ however happens in our, boring world and most of the characters are "normal", but they act insane.

-Nevertheless, since it's got two authors, it is a bit on the longer side.
-Just enough to overstay its welcome by just a bit.
-Pratchett is a master of the word and characters, but his stories  he tell are rarely interesting - and I was never a fan of Gaiman.
-I didn't find what is told here much interesting, I was not curious how they will stop the apocalypse.
-Nothing unexpected happened.
-If it was 2/3 of the current size, if some of the crust was removed, it would be a better book, as the general idea is very cool.
-But even in current state, it's very enjoyable and well worth the read _if_ you love Pratchetts style.
