Pretty decent

Not the best story compilation, but some stories are quite cool, and I liked them a lot.

Heaton at his glorious best.

Wonderful stories told well. Witty and intelligent. Buy this man another blazer. Or at least a waistcoat.

Thoroughly brilliant

This collection of short stories is everything. It’s funny, heartfelt, heartbreaking, and really good sci fi. I never knew this intelligent comedian could also be such a brilliant author. Except for a tiny overlap in the whistler short story, the production was excellent. Heaton has a tonne of experience as a podcast host, a comedian, and some as an actor, all of which comes through in his reading of this audiobook. I thoroughly recommend this!
