Good Omens was wonderful, even better than the short story. It was clever and more rounded out than the short story plus it had a wonderful cast.

288 pages is generally considered a novel, not a short story Wink2
I haven't gotten around to watching it yet, I'll probably get an episode in sometime this week.

There are several versions of the book that were printed, some were longer than others. I had a quick look for my copy but couldn't find it as my books are scattered all over the house. I think my copy was from the UK but the American version was 700 words longer.





Quote :

The United States edition of Good Omens had numerous alterations to the text. The most significant alteration to the main text is the addition of an extra 700-word section just before the end, dealing with what happened to the character of Warlock, the American diplomat's son, who was swapped with Adam.[7] [wikipedia.org] The American edition also adds numerous footnotes not found in British editions.

Mostly a good-natured way of pointing out that Good Omens is a novel, not a short story Harhar
