Fan Fic: Manchester Lost
"Grrr, I am evil. And you suck." (art by Quantum Witch)
Manchester Lost by JAMoczo is a very funny
Good Omens Crack Fic /
Action Adventure / (non-explicit)
Slash Fic in which Aziraphale is captured by Hell and Crowley, War and the Archangel Michael (on a
Mission from God ) break in to save him and set off a second apocalypse. It introduces entertaining
characterizations of
other angels such as Michael, Raphael (Aziraphale's adopted father), Gabriel, and Uriel. It's a
self parodying Affectionate Parody with many interesting twists and turns along the way.
It is technically a sequel to
How Crowley Fell Out of Love with the Bentley (which is a sequel to
Good Omens ).
Manchester Lost has a sequel itself, which is complete:
Paradise Thwarted . Now
Paradise Thwarted has its own page too!
Warning: Spoilers ahead!

No Social Skills - Those entities that haven't been on Earth for very long aren't aware of appropriate human behavior.
