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

Agent Isaac Steele has problems. He spends all his splibs on drink and drugs. He has some deep-seated and very much unresolved issues with his parents. And his robotic partner at Greatest Britain’s Department of Clarification, Dr Timothy Stephens, is ruled more by his heart than his hard drive.

But all these issues take a back seat when Isaac stumbles upon a case involving the most sensitive information in the cosmos - a Never File, inaccessible to all except those with the highest clearance. He is expressly forbidden to involve himself. So naturally he does.

So begins an investigation that will take him across the Discovered Universe, into the path of the mysterious Forever Man, and eventually to answers about his past. Along the way, he will have to contend with aliens, robots, monsters, bureaucrats and, perhaps most deadly of all, his own numerous flaws.

Written and narrated by BAFTA award winner Daniel Rigby (Eric and Ernie, Flowers, Black Mirror), not since The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy have listeners been offered such a joyful, anarchic and insightful universe.

For those wondering if this novel is good for you: If you've listened to podcasts like Stellar Firma, Penumbra Podcast, and enjoy the wild humor of the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the galaxy, but sped up by maybe 3x, you'll enjoy this. The sample alone did a great job setting the stage for what to expect through this novel.

Daniel Rigby's narration was immensely wonderful and fun to listen to. (along with the fantastic editing, this is a really good quality audio book!) It is fast paced, timed like a seasoned comedian, and humor as dry as the desert.
I am so glad to have come across this when trying to find a comedic sci-fi audio book with themes of humanism, autonomy and satire.
The only thing I truly wished for was a little more detail on the absurd aliens and landscapes mentioned in this work. It may have been the intention though since the story hits the ground running following a childishly film noir inspired 'detective' that is perpetually on some kind of substance. There is barely a hair of exposition or world building to ride on (that gets fed to you naturally through the story) but despite this, it was still a fantastic listen.

I genuinely hope to see more of Daniel Rigby's work out there.

Bombastic comedic rollercoster

So much to love here, I’ll just list it out

1. Enjoyable new sci fi world in which great britain is once again colonizing everything, this time in space

2. Author/reader is a comedian and peformer, so the book is legitimately funny, easily as good as any britcom in recent memory

3. Normally a book narrated by its author is a red flag but in this case it really works well, due to his credentials as a performer. The comic timing is dead on

4. Sound effects and background noise is a divisive issue. I was a little concerned at first but it’s very well done for the most part here, mostly fading into the background and doesn’t pull focus from the reading. There are a few points where it really helps too

5. I’ll just mention again that it’s very funny

Fantastic new sci-fi with lots of comedy

Great characters, snarky dialog; funny and fun, but not totally farcical or slapstick. Behind the interesting robot/human/alien interactions, there's a tangled political system and a compelling Sci-Fi plot. Usually authors are not great narrators, but this is an exception especially since the story is relayed first person by Isaac Steele - can't imagine any narrator who would fit Isaac's weird personality as well as the voice of author Daniel Rigby. Got the book for free through Audible, but would have been happy to spend a credit for this highly entertaining adventure. Hope there will be more!

Totally fun!

Daniel Rigby, superstar.
Hilarious writing, incredible narration - fully sound engineered.
Absolutely over the top - exceeding all expectations that your writings/readings have left most of my collection feeling gray around the edges.
This is probably my favorite audiobook - and that's saying something... I have over 400, but none make me grin wickedly until my face hurts quite like this.
Thanks Dan.

TAKE MY MONEY!

creative story line -- charming updated parody of modern law and civilization; enjoyable characters. i really hope this is just the beginning.

hope this will be a new series

Loved this read. Great humor and action. I can always read a book that has a Smart ass as the main character. also there are sentient robots and buildings. lol.

Seriously Hilarious

Also Rigby sounds very like Tim Key, so I began to imagine Tim Key as Steele and it really fits.

Spectacular

This is just an incredibly fun book to listen to. The narration is excellent, the story moves along at a great pace, and it's at times straight up hilarious. A total romp, and I'll certainly be looking for the author's next book. Nicely done!

That was just... fun

Truly, please tell me there will be more Isaac Steele. He’s delightfully F’d up and bitingly sarcastic. There must be more!

More please, thank you!
