About this listen

In modern day Edinburgh our reality is beginning to break down. A suicide victim fails in his attempt but ends up face to face with an Angel, an imprisoned serial killer draws pictures of real events he couldn't have seen, while a teenage tearaway runs amok believing his life to be a violent video game.

Stuck in the middle is Inspector Harvey Cooper, an experienced policeman who doesn't believe in the supernatural, struggling to keep up and piece together the events unfolding in his City. The answer may lie within a heavenly book, but only by understanding it can anyone hope to save The Life Machine and the universe that we know.

I've just finished listening! I really enjoyed the story, plenty of twists and turns! The author performs really well, making it easy to follow the different characters, and with none of the monotone/ robot voice that you sometimes get with audiobooks, the humour and emotion really comes through. I honestly cannot wait to find out what happens in book 2, I don't know how I am going to cope without my daily dose of The Life Machine!!!

can't wait for the rest of the series!

it's been years since I read/ listen to something so captivating and addictive! The story gets you hooked from page 1 and doesn't let you go until... Well it doesn't. The audiobook was 14 hours and I pressed pause once to sleep about 4 hours just to wake up to keep listening. I am absolutely in love with the way of writing, the conversations and how much you just want to stay with the characters. I cant wait til I get the books just so I can read them again!!.

I had to wright a second review after reading book 2

Fantastic very compelling story that constantly leaves in a state of wanting more. A blend of crime, thriller and fantasy that is entirely appropriate to the narrative. Excellent performance from the author Dave Pitt, who provided even more depth to his characters.
I don't want to wait for the 2nd book so I've already ordered it in print and can't wait to get started.
Thank you very much for the intriguing plot lines and a solid 15 + hours of very enjoyable escapism.

Compelling, start to finish. Stand out performance from the author.
