A full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman’s celebrated apocalyptic comic novel, with bonus length episodes and outtakes. According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday in fact. Just after Any Answers on Radio 4….Events have been set in motion to bring about the End of Days. The armies of Good and Evil are gathering and making their way towards the sleepy English village of Lower Tadfield.

Terry Pratchett AND Neil Gaiman
Revisado: 06-15-15
What did you love best about Good Omens?
The quirkiness and imagination of Terry Pratchett has always appealed to me. Having listened to most of the "Discworld" series (especially those read by Nigel George Planer) I was eager to listen this book in which he collaborated with Neil Gaiman. While I enjoyed it it did not live up to my expectations - think I missed characters like Rincewind!!
Any additional comments?
Think I'll stick to the Discworld!

Kate Atkinson’s dazzling Life After Life, one of the top-selling adult books of 2014, explored the possibility of infinite chances, as Ursula Todd lived through the turbulent events of the last century again and again. In A God in Ruins, Atkinson turns her focus on Ursula’s beloved younger brother, Teddy – would-be poet, RAF bomber pilot, husband, and father – as he navigates the perils and progress of the 20th century. For all Teddy endures in battle, his greatest challenge will be to face living in a future he never expected to have.

Would you listen to A God In Ruins again? Why?
I think next time I will read it and not listen to it. When I read "Life after life" (to which "A God in ruins" is a squel) I sometimes had to revert to previous chapters to recapture previous events as the story is somewhat confusing in that it jumps backwards to events and then forwards in time with different characters. I found this difficult to do when "listening" as I could not "turn back pages" to previous chapters - if that makes sense!
Any additional comments?
I think one should read "Life after Life" before listening to "A God in ruins" as this will furnish the reader/listener with a background of the characters whose lives, in the latter, often reflect on events and characters in the former.
