    Summary

    Anthony Crowley is 40 years old and down on his luck. In the past few years he’s lost his job as a journalist, his boyfriend, his flat, and most of his self-respect. When he hears about the chance to nanny a three-year-old boy, it looks like the opportunity he’s been waiting for to turn his life around.

    At 57, bookshop owner Aziraphale Fell has resigned himself to his perpetual bachelorhood. Still, each year, he looks forward to dressing up in his vintage Father Christmas suit and turning his bookshop annex into a holiday wonderland.

    When Crowley and his young charge, Adam, attend Father Christmas’s Magical Bookshop, it’s clear the two men are attracted to one another. Over the course of the next year they become friends, important to one another in every way. The question is, can they face their fears and admit that they have fallen quite deeply in love?

    Summary

    Nearly a year after returning to Heaven as Supreme Archangel, Aziraphale learns that the Second Coming is no distant prophecy but an active and deadly project. This time, Heaven intends to succeed, and Aziraphale has been tasked with delivering it.

    Hell has already made its move. A new Antichrist has been planted, not in a human but in a demon, a choice calculated to destabilise Heaven’s certainty from the inside out.

    And, of course, Aziraphale and Crowley are not speaking.

    What passed between them before the separation still lingers, unresolved and unspoken, and both will work independently to stop the Second Coming and save the imperfect world they have spent millennia protecting.

    A story about rebellion, perfection and loss, and the dangerous hope that love, even delayed, might still change the ending.

    Oh. And there's a baby too.

    Summary

    Crowley hates Christmas. He hates winter. He hates the way the year insists on circling back to the same night, again and again.

    Every Christmas Eve, he works a crisis hotline, because if he’s going to have a miserable night, he might as well help other people through theirs.

    When a call goes wrong, the careful scaffolding he’s built around himself begins to crack — and Crowley starts to believe that maybe the problem has always been him. That maybe the world would be better off without him in it.

    Enter Aziraphale: angel, nuisance, and entirely unwilling to let Crowley disappear quietly. Oh — and he’s kind of cute, too.
