Why this must be read:

Following the comments of old-school GO fan curmudgeons, you'll find the two things they are most picky about are smut and footnotes. Good Omens is in part a Terry Pratchett brainchild and so makes use of footnotes, as he does (and yet has chapters, which his Discworld books don't). Skip the footnotes and you miss many of the most quoted moments. But Pratchett also famously does not write sex scenes - which GO fen, being fen, do most gleefully.

This story has the best integration of these two "difficulties" I have ever seen, as well as keeping all that we love about the angel Aziraphale and the demon Crowley as characters--in particular, their very human talents for denial of the obvious.

I love comedy and I love smut and more than either apart, I love them together. And no, this story's not really quotable, because the formatting is so very special. Form follows function, and both are enjoying themselves.
