    Yes i know, but the second reason of them being unamerican was that when they at the end gathered for battle, just after the first blows fall, they were actually convinced to not bloody murder eachother just by words, something supremely unamericanly which afaik never happened for the Usians and especialy not when they had opportunity to kill other people.

    I had read the Good Omen which he wrote with Pratchet and i don’t remember details at all, but i was reading Pratchett at the time and i concluded it’s very boring for Pratchett so it probably was Gaiman fault, the guy is just not good with humour or maybe it was so specific it whooshed past me (though i do get most of Pratchet one), observation that was confirmed by other his books i read, top class writer workshop, but pretty boring. I also read “The Graveyard book” which was good but had the typical uninspired fairy tale ending. And finally his “Norse Mythology” which i found to be very similar but slightly inferior in every aspect to the classical Roger Lancelyn Green verson.
