The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

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

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.

Oh, and someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist...

4,0 stars

I was a little surprised by this one. Maybe I’m not the right target audience but I found it all just a tiny bit too whimsical for me. I still thoroughly enjoyed it though, just not 5 stars enjoyed it

Review of 'De Bons Presages' on 'Goodreads'

4,0 stars

Loved the style, and how the plot unravels with the classical end where all characters collide in the very same spot. The fine Brit humor is constant. I can't wait to see the TV adaptation next year.
