About this listen

Brought to you by Its Majesty's Government. Greatest Britain: For a Global Universe.

Strap yourself in and maybe put on a crash helmet, Agent Isaac Steele has another case to crack.

The theft of the Best Idea in the Universe from Thresia's Intergalactic Bank of Ideas plunges the Discovered Universe into chaos. With a robotic partner who’s not the machine he fell in love with and a mind as cool and measured as a forest fire, Isaac must unravel a cosmic conspiracy that stretches further than the reaches of even his depraved imagination.

Earth and Thresia teeter on the brink of war as the race to recover the Best Idea intensifies. Yet in this bizarre Universe, truth proves stranger - and far more perilous - than fiction.

So put on that helmet and possibly add kneepads actually for a mind-bending journey through space, time, and the occasional bar in this latest adventure from the brilliantly warped mind of BAFTA winner Daniel Rigby.

Available in Dolby Atmos

Great story

Uneven sound mars a good sequel to the Forever Man. Hope he is writing more, this one ends on a cliffhanger of sorts.

Wow.

Both episodes are worth your credits if you like well dramatized and narrated irreverent sci fi space operas. Well paced story. Hilarious protagonist. I'm both surprised and pleased with these satisfying, funny books. A great break from hard core science fiction. I hope book three is on the way!

Take James Bond, with out all the sex. Put him in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, by way of the Monty Python dimension, and you are mentally prepared for these books!

Even better than the first!

Steele is made of the stuff, at least somewhere in there. It's a great story and isn't bogged down with extraneous info. It's all about the story of this sometimes hard to fathom human cyborg.

I love the first two books of this series for their conflicts, internal and external, and all the detective work, or avoidance of it and why. Some things are not gone into deeply enough so I look forward to those answers in the next book(s) in the series. Highly recommended if you're into detective v. bureaucracy v. villain v. well-meaning friends science fiction.

Narration: transition to a new world is seamless because of how well it was written and interpreted by author's own voice, An even smoother listen than the first book.
