    I overheard someone talking to someone else about a book a while back, and Google can't help me find the book. It sounded like something I'd like to read, so I'm really curious about what the book is. I was wondering if anyone here could help me...

    The book in question has something about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse coming to Earth in modern times. To adapt to the modern world, they change their names. I think there was Answering Phone Messages, Animal Cruelty and Traffic Jams. I can't remember the other one :&

    That's all I remember. It's a long shot, but worth a try! :)

    Hmmm sounds like its probably Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman should be easily available. (its a piss take of the omen movies)

    Thanks :D

    I had a feeling it would be something to do with Terry Pratchett :)

    Probably is Good Omens by Terry Pratchett but two other possibilities are Elvis and the Apocalypse: The Awful Disclosures of Marie, Matron of the Motel Dew Beanery by Steve Werner or Damned if You Do by Gordon Houghton
