Although I found the book to be a bit of a slow starter, it picked up about a third of the way through it and held my interest from then on. Good Omens stands on its own merits, but, like most attempts at genre humor, is not for everyone nor will its effects be the same on everyone. It is, however, one of the better efforts I've read and is, in my opinion, worth your while to give it a shot.
