Good Omens: A Full Cast Production 豆瓣
作者: Neil Gaiman / Terry Pratchett HarperAudio 2021 - 11
A brand new full cast audiobook production of the classic collaboration from internationally bestselling authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett starring Rebecca Front as the Narrator, Michael Sheen as Aziraphale, and David Tennant as Crowley!
"Good Omens . . . is something like what would have happened if Thomas Pynchon, Tom Robbins and Don DeLillo had collaborated. Lots of literary inventiveness in the plotting and chunks of very good writing and characterization. It’s a wow. It would make one hell of a movie. Or a heavenly one. Take your pick."—Washington Post
According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.
So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon—both of whom have lived amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle—are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture.
And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .
Don’t miss Season 2 of the Prime original series!

原来立下雄心壮志要在发售当天就听完,结果还是慢吞吞地听了一周,好饭慢慢吃也挺开心。两位的表演……和剧版剧情重复的部份确实刻意表演出了不同的感觉,辛老师的亚茨更“老”更稳重,而老蛇一如既往蠢蠢的(大卫甜对不起)。剧版被删掉的情节二位的表演显然要放得开得多,但老蛇喊亚茨上车前先清理干净身上蛋糕的语气还是一样温柔!我还能再听十遍!我永远爱这个故事,爱亚茨和蛇蛇。

There is a distinct hint of Armageddon in the air. According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (recorded, thankfully, in 1655, before she blew up her entire village and all its inhabitants, who had gathered to watch her burn), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, the Four Bikers of the Apocalypse are revving up their mighty hogs and hitting the road, and the world's last two remaining witch-finders are getting ready to fight the good fight, armed with awkwardly antiquated instructions and stick pins. Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. . . . Right. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. </p>
Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon -- each of whom has lived among Earth's mortals for many millennia and has grown rather fond of the lifestyle -- are not particularly looking forward to the coming Rapture. If Crowley and Aziraphale are going to stop it from happening, they've got to find and kill the Antichrist (which is a shame, as he's a really nice kid). There's just one glitch: someone seems to have misplaced him. . . . </p>
First published in 1990, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's brilliantly dark and screamingly funny take on humankind's final judgment is back -- and just in time -- in a new hardcover edition (which includes an introduction by the authors, comments by each about the other, and answers to some still-burning questions about their wildly popular collaborative effort) that the devout and the damned alike will surely cherish until the end of all things. </p>

太上头了停不下来,下一步可能是去听广播剧吧。读得慢完全是因为常常被萌到要去AO3找文看……书里的Aziraphale更冷酷,Crowley更心软,对世界的疑问和痛苦更多,但对angel的感情没那么外露,大概是Neil想表达失去Terry的悲伤吧。一见上司就怂的Crowley超可爱,Aziraphale的intelligent没人怀疑啦。提议一起保护人类的Azi是真·天使,以为要死了nice knowing you也太甜了吧。对于一闪而过路人的吐槽太入骨,虽然我知道这很重要但是天使恶魔以外的情节就随便吧。tv版和书比起来真是纯纯的true love story了,虽然想要更多糖但就结束在这个没有尽头的夏天也很好啊。
