Evil Baddy's Comedy Line Of The Week: "This time, Grimbling, he will not grasp so easily through my slip" - I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again - 1966.0523


While on Hols in Hunstanton, a couple of weeks ago, i happened upon a copy of 'Better Than Life' - the second of Grant Naylor's Red Dwarf books.
It utilises plot-settings that are familiar from the TV episodes, but weaves an unfamiliar plot line, and throws in a few other plot constructs.
It's not difficult to read, and it's not frustratingly long. Definitely good to read!

Damn - i wanna try these now!
...but not the last one :-o
