About this listen

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.

It’s that good, I’m only an hour in and I’m loving it and hating that there’s no follow up book….
This book alone makes my audible membership worthwhile.
Best listen of 2021

It’s free but I’d have paid all my credits for it.

I absolutely loved this! The basic story is a futuristic police procedural with strong inequality themes. Somehow the author made it hilarious. I hope he narrates ALL his own books. My favourite thing was the "makemyeyebigmyeyewentbig". Laughed every time.
(will suit fans of Terry Pratchet)

BRILLIANT!!!

I've listened to this fantastically smart and witty comedy at keast 5 times.
Intelligent, funny, a little on the nose in one or two places but Rigby delivers in both writing and performance.

I hope to hear more of Isaac Steele and the Department of Clarification in the future.

"Make my eye go big." I said and my eye went big.

I read a review comparing it to the hitchhikers guide so thought I'd give it a go. I'm really glad I did.

Hilarious and gripping
