Just as Great as the 1st Book

I enjoyed the 2nd book just as much as the 1st. The narrator has the characters down perfect! They sound just as I remember them from the TV show. The only downside to this book is that I want more.

Chris Barrie, need I say more?

The story is good, but the narration is spectacular. Chris does very good voices for the whole crew, don't miss this one.

I love the show and I love these two books. I hope that they bring the rest of the books into the Audible.

Science-FANTASTIC !!!

Chris Barrie is MARVELOUS!!! Thank you Audible for making "Infinity Welcomes..." and "Better Than Life" available!!! I've worn out my cassettes !!! Please consider offering "Backwards" and "The Last Human". There's definitely an audience for them, especially considering RED DWARF XII just wrapped!!!
P L E A S E !!! 😄

Awesome

The narrator does a very good job on all the separate voices. You would think it had 5 narrators. The story is so good, and the ending was perfect.

Loved how it ends.

It caps off its predecessor well with an ending that genuinely surprised me. Different from the series in a good way.
