About this listen

As the mighty alien fleet from the very latest computer game thunders across the computer screen, Johnny prepares to blow them into the usual million pieces. But then they send him a message: "We surrender". They're not supposed to do that! They're supposed to die. And computer joysticks don't have "Don't Fire" buttons....

It's hard enough trying to save Mankind from the Galactic Hordes. It's even harder trying to save the Galactic Hordes from Mankind. But it's only a game, isn't it. Isn't it?

Here is a hugely entertaining and thought-provoking new adventure from the master of comic fantasy, Terry Pratchett.

Critic reviews

"A wonderful new Pratchett-style fantasy: funny and thrilling enough for anyone." ( Daily Mail)

This is an old favourite for our whole family. it is written for the younger reader but we can enjoy it as a family still and is great for long car journeys. Terry Pratchett is a firm favourite in our house and in our opinion Tony Robinson is absolutely the best narrator for his stories.
