Endgame by Andy Secombe

At a cocktail party to launch his latest creations: Adam and Eve, God is challenged to a bet by the Devil. The fallen angel, unimpressed by the Boss's new toys, wagers that, far from becoming the custodians of Earth, mankind will inevitably destroy itself. God, alas, can't refuse such a wager in front of all his guests. If Satan wins, he gets his place back in Heaven and control of what little is left of the Earth. If he loses, he will retire into outer darkness and never bother his ex-boss further. Coming down to Earth, we meet Martin Gray, a simple dentist at the end of his tether, who finds himself assisting the angel Gabriel in a desperate attempt to stop the Devil laying waste to the Earth by means of a fiendishly cunning computer game. But when Martin’s wife is kidnapped and dragged down to Hell, it is clear that the problems are just beginning . . . `Secombe occupies his ground with confidence and never lets logic get in the way of his plot’ Guardian `I enjoyed it immensely . . . a comic fantasy that actually delivers on its premise. Douglas would have enjoyed it. He might even have been a bit jealous . . .' Simon Jones (`Arthur Dent’ in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy)
