《好兆头》内容简介 

 

主角之一名叫克鲁利，穿着时尚，开的车是本特利，除了毁灭人类之外没有固定工作——因为他是魔王撒旦的手下。

另一位主角名叫亚茨拉菲尔，珍本书商，业余魔术师。他是个天使，给上帝干活儿。

还有一位主角名叫亚当，普普通通的一个小孩。当然，这本书里没几个普通人，尤其是这一位。他的真实身份是：神之大敌、诸王的毁灭者、无底深渊的天使、名叫恶龙的猛兽、此界的王子、谎言之父、撒旦之种和黑暗之君。一句话，撒旦的亲儿子。

本书讲述的是世界末日的故事，也就是善恶大决战。问题是，亚茨拉菲尔和克鲁利（天使和魔鬼）本是几千年的老朋友，经常喝酒聊天，而且结成了同盟，对各自上司交办的差事都敷衍了事。还有，亚当这个撒旦之子也觉得地球挺不错，把它毁了怪可惜的……

 

Table of Contents:

"Armageddon only happens once, you know. They don't let you go around again until you get it right."

 

According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch - the world's only totally reliable guide to the future, written in 1655, before she exploded - the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just after tea.

 

People have been predicting the end of the world almost from its very beginning, so it's only natural to be sceptical when a new date is set for Judgement Day. This time though, the armies of Good and Evil really do appear to be massing. The four Bikers of the Apocalypse are hitting the road. But both the angels and demons - well, one fast-living demon and a somewhat fussy angel - would quite like the Rapture not to happen.

And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist.

Biographical Note:

Neil Gaiman (Author)

Neil Gaiman is the acclaimed creator of the graphic novel series SANDMAN and of such novels for children as Coraline and for adults as American Gods and Stardust. His comics and novels have sold in their tens of millions. Like Terry, his works have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and also like Terry, he is the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. Unlike Terry, he has never been awarded a knighthood for services to literature, although his mother thinks that sooner or later the Queen will read one of his books and immediately knight him if she likes it, and that to be on the safe side he should leave out the rude words.He does have the Newbery Medal, though.
