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

Brilliant sequel - more please!
This book is just as much fun as the first one. I love all the characters and will never not laugh at “and then my eye went big”. Hoping there will be a third instalment as it’s certainly set up for one. Only slight negative (and it’s so minor) is that the audio is glitchy in a couple of places. But none of it distracts from the story.

Great follow-up!
After seeing this was available, I immediately started listening and while it is short, it's incredibly gripping. If I hadn't started listening to it before bed for a few nights, I'd probably have finished it in one sitting. The world building is great, the characters are memorable and the author is fantastic in bringing both the world and characters to life with his narration skills. Can't wait to see where the series goes. Definitely a must listen!

A fabulously entertaining sequel
This jumps straight back into the story, so was a great excuse to "pause" and re-listen to The Forever Man beforehand (which I enjoyed just as much the second time around). The characters are engaging and the story is well paced and very funny.
This series may not be for those that find swearing distasteful.... my language could make a sailor blush

Wonderfully and insanely imaginative
I have thoroughly enjoyed this second journey into the wonderful chaos of Isaac Steel's world. Daniel Rigby's narration of his own story is excellent. Looking forward to more 💖💖💖💖💖

Hitchhikers Guide, Dirk Gently and Doctor Who's 3-way love child
Perfect if, like me, you find current events have tilted your brain pan towards the gloomy. Listen on repeat to this and the first until it's all over.

The New Hitchhiker’s
I grew up a massive Douglas Adams fan, and this scratches an itch that I feel has been getting steadily more and more annoying for years. It’s silly, all over the place, but brilliant and creative. It’s just a really good time.

The Greatest British Empire is under attack
I know it has been compared to H2G2 a lot and to say again is a bit cliché but it really does have the absurd humour of Adams' works but combines with the acerbic characters find in Yahzee Croshaw's works. The highest of praise and can't wait for book three.

Excellent, funny and original!
This story was excellent, it was very funny and original in that it is totally different to most stories I have read before. Give it a try but obviously get the previous book first ☺️
