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

Absolutely brilliant, again. A total gem which made me laugh out loud as well as deeply care about the characters. I’d love another please ?

Fantastic follow up to book 1

So glad Daniel Rigby wrote a follow up to arguably my favourite Audiobook of all time! Hilarious and intriguing at the same time, please don’t wait as long for Book 3!

Brilliant sequel, bring on Book 3!!

Dry, witty, irreverent - imaginative, brilliantly performed with a great soundscape. I chuckle away to myself which i never do for any other books so far and have re listened to both books immediately on rewind. Best thing to happen to my ears since biro caps!

Best audible sci fi i have listened to

ISATFM was one of my favourite books in recent years, so I binged this down as soon as I discovered it existed and I regret nothing. ISATBIITU continues where ISATFM finished and is just as exciting and entertaining as the first.

I'll admit, I hope Isaac's alcoholism and heroin abuse returns in the third book as it was a little lacking this time round. Waldo, don't you dare soften up on us! We want depravity!!!

Yes, yes, character arcs, people change, etc, etc, I understand. Just make sure it's not down to an executive saying, "could we maybe have less of the heroin please" because we want Trainspotting in space. Otherwise, highly recommend. Fantastic series!

Welcome back to the acid trip...
