About this listen

Red Dwarf - Better Than Life is the second and final instalment of this hilarious sci-fi comedy.

Narrated by Chris "Rimmer" Barrie, Better Than Life finds the crew trapped in a mind-boggling computer game that is threatening their lives and safety of the ship. One by one, they enter the game to rescue each other - and one by one, they become trapped! Holly will have to use his mega brain to solve this one.

Amazing

As a huge fan of the TV series, I was pleasantly surprised to find the audio reading by Mr Barrie as good as the show. Barrie does a phenomenal job impersonating all the main characters voices. So much so its almost impossible to believe he is the only one reading it.

Narration is amazing

Great ability to narrate in each of the characters voices. I liked that it was different from, and yet similar to, the TV Series. :)

I don't even like audiobooks but this...

Fantastic book, absolutely spectacular performance - Chris Barrie's narrating is as brilliant as his acting. What a guy!

More brilliance

Awesome. The only thing that annoyed me was the sheer volume of the chapter music. Totally too loud. Other than that, brilliant book, thoroughly enjoyable.

if you're going to write about something

and everything and love growing young, I can imagine that you would begin the chrysalis with the idea and work backwards towards such perfection.

Better than life - Funny as hell.

What a great listen. I had fun following the gang of Red Dwarf around the Universe through their series of mis-adventures. A fantastic way to pass the time with great laughs along the way.

Chris Barrie does it again. Awesome!

A great listen, I love the way Chris Barrie manages to pull off everyone's voices.

I've read this book many times but it was great to experience the audio version
