The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

by Neil Gaiman

According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner. So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon—both of whom have lived amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle—are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture. And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .

by Douglas Adams

Just before the Earth is demolished to make way for a new hyperspatial expressway, Arthur Dent is plucked off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect from the planet Betelgeuse and begins his hitch-hiking misadventures throughout the universe.
