Story
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

Not too long from today, a new, highly contagious virus makes its way across the globe. Most who get sick experience nothing worse than flu, fever, and headaches. But for the unlucky one percent - and nearly five million souls in the United States alone - the disease causes "Lock In": Victims fully awake and aware, but unable to move or respond to stimulus. The disease affects young, old, rich, poor, people of every color and creed. The world changes to meet the challenge.

Story
Hi! I’m Seth! I was asked to describe my audiobook, Yearbook for websites and shit like that, so...here it goes!!! Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it’s likely the former, which is a fancy “book” way of saying “the first one.”) I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs, and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like.

Twenty years ago, 16-year-old Tara Martin disappeared from a small town in the heart of England. Now, her sudden return and the mind-bending tale of where she’s been will challenge our very perception of the truth. For 20 years after Tara Martin disappeared, her parents and her brother, Peter, lived in denial of the grim fact that she was gone for good. Then suddenly on Christmas Day, the doorbell rings at her parents’ home, and there, dishevelled and slightly peculiar looking, Tara stands. It’s a miracle, but alarm bells are ringing for Peter. Tara’s story just does not add up.

Joe Spork repairs clocks, a far cry from his late father, a flashy London gangster. But when Joe fixes one particularly unusual device, his life is suddenly upended. Joe's client, Edie Banister, is more than just a kindly old lady - she's a former superspy. And the device? It's a 1950s doomsday machine. And having triggered it, Joe now faces the wrath of both the government and a diabolical South Asian dictator, Edie's old arch-nemesis.

Things have been going pretty badly for Theo Bernstein. An unfortunate accident at work has lost him his job (and his work involved a Very Very Large Hadron Collider, so he's unlikely to get it back). His wife has left him. And he doesn't have any money. Before Theo has time to fully appreciate the pointlessness of his own miserable existence, news arrives that his good friend, a renowned physicist and Nobel laureate, has died. By leaving the apparently worthless contents of his safety deposit box to Theo, however, the professor has set him on a quest of epic proportions.

Story
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

Finally!
This has been one of my print favorites for a decade, and I don't know why it has taken so long to get to audio, but it's finally here! A great, hilarious, even thought provoking journey through the End Days. If you like Mssrs. Gaiman or Pratchett's other works, or Monty Python, Douglas Adams or British humor in general, pick it up! You won't be sorry.

Great Fun for Christopher Moore Fans
If you enjoyed Christopher Moore's A Dirty Job, you will enjoy Good Omens. It's a little hard to follow at times because there's no pause between scene changes. But you'll get used to it and the characters are well-read and written.

Award Winner
After listening to Good Omens, I did my first narrator search because Martin Jarvis does such an excellent job. The insightful, surrealistic humor elegantly handles weighty matters. I would suggest this book to anybody with a sense of humor but especially to those, like me, that are a bit confused as to what existence is and why we are here.

Make this a TV series!!
What did you love best about Good Omens?
The four horsemen. Hilarious
Have you listened to any of Martin Jarvis’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Martin Jarvice did an excellent job. He really made the story pop.
If you could rename Good Omens, what would you call it?
The Good, The Bad, and The Hilarious
Any additional comments?
This book was so good i can't even explain or have a favorite part. I listened to it from start to finish in one sitting.

The end of the world can be fun!
Angels, Demons, Witches, Witch Hunters, the Four Horsemen (now on motorcycles) and something even scarier - an eleven year old boy - all prepare for Armageddon. It turns out bureaucracy in Heaven and Hell isn't any more efficient than here on earth. Not a serious meditation, just a lot of fun, satirizing such diverse topics as fad diets, telemarketers, New Agers, and more. Especially charming are the angel and demon who have found themselves uncomfortably attached to human life.

Fantastic story, off-putting narration
The story we all know and love is there, but the narration is so thick with stereotype and colloquiums that it’s difficult to to stay focused. The character voices that the narrator affects are jarring and unnecessary. It’s a British story written by British authors, but I’ve never met a Brit that spoke so heavily and off-putting as this. Read this book. Don’t listen to it.

Dogma meets Monty Python
What I did enjoy about it was the dry wit of it. If you’re not familiar or not a fan of British humor, you won’t enjoy this book. Equally silly and stuffy.
What I wasn’t a fan of was the every growing cast of characters.
*Foot note: While it was a diverse spectrum, it was hard to keep track of them all.*

Just wasn't a big winner for me.
Narrator was great, but the story just never grabbbed me. Normally a big Gaiman fan, but this felt too slow and I just didn't connect with some of the characters as I have in other books.

Cute
I'm a big Neil Gaiman fan. There's something about his sense of humor that I adore. And this book hams it up. Plus it's got a perfect narrator to deliver those amusing lines in just the right way. I think this book delivered on everything it said it would be.
