Summary
The astonishing, beautiful new story from the best-selling and Costa short-listed author of Time Travelling with a Hamster.
There are stories about people who want to live forever.
This is not one of those stories.
This is a story about someone who wants to stop....
Alfie Monk is like any other nearly teenage boy - except he's 1,000 years old and can remember the last Viking invasion of England.
Obviously no-one believes him.
So when everything Alfie knows and loves is destroyed in a fire and the modern world comes crashing in, Alfie embarks on a mission to find friendship, acceptance and a different way to live...which means finding a way to make sure he will eventually die.

ROXY NEEDS A SEQUEL
I love this story so much! The narrators bring the already vibrant characters to life and Ross Welford didn’t skimp on any of the characters. Honestly would 100% recommend, the story is definitely novel but it was a nice change from what you usually get. Most importantly I loved the Roxy Minto. She definitely was a highlight for me and I really wish there was a sequel *hint hint* that delved deeper into her character! Overall great book go listen to it!
