Adam's friends capture War, Pollution, and Famine. In the end, it was this book done by two guys, who shared the money equally and did it for fun and wouldn't do it again for a big clock.In the French version, some characters were given French-sounding names. Adam is prophesied to bring about the end of all things, so the forces of both Heaven and Hell are intent on keeping an eye on him in preparation for the final battle. Crowley became Rampa (as 'Crawly' became 'Crowley', 'Rampant' became 'Rampa'), after the infamous author of In the Czech version of the book, the names of Agnes, Anathema, the Satanist nuns, Pepper and some minor characters were translated too. Anathema, Newton Pulsifer and Sergeant Shadwell (the two last members of the Witchfinder Army), Madame Tracey (a medium and Shadwell's neighbour), Adam and his gang, Aziraphale and Crowley gather at a military base near Lower Tadfield to stop the Horsemen from causing a nuclear war and ending the world.
