About this listen

Beautiful. Magnificent. Indestructible. These are the plaudits given to the luxury space liner as it sets forth on its maiden voyage to distant vacation planets.

Onboard, far below the decks of the rich and famous, is an unhappy, forlorn janitor named Chuck who mops and sweeps and dreams of, one day, becoming a captain and piloting a great spaceship such as this.

I think in book form this would be a great story, there's a little touch of Lister from Red Dwarf in the main character.

I just couldn't get on with the 'hail fellow, well met' cheeriness of the narrator. It's a no comment on their skills, the reading was clear, but having a book read to you is a personal thing and I couldn't concentrate on the tale. He sounded, for any other Dwarf fans, like the character 'Confidence'. And that gets wearing.

I had to speed it up to x1.25 as it was already slow.

If I see this on Kindle/paperback I will definitely give it another go.

Good story, couldn't get on with narration

When I first got to this book, I thought it was the Little Shop of Horrors, not ship, but even so, I was enthralled in the story and Hannibal Hills does a wonderful job narrating. There were moments at the start where, admittedly, I got a little frustrated, but his narration style is perfect for children's books, he puts so much into what he reads aloud and each character felt like their own and I did thoroughly enjoy his performance throughout.

A happy misread on my part
