Red Dwarf Books Overview
Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers
A novel based on BBC2’s cult comedy series written by the writers of the ‘Spitting Image Book’. Its humour features the epic adventures of a huge clapped out old space ship with an equally clapped out crew.
Better than Life
Based on the TV series, this book is a sequel to ‘Red Dwarf’. The characters of Rimmer, Cat and Kryten are trapped in a computer game which can transport players directly to the world of imagination, a world where each player can enjoy fabulous success. The only catch is that the game kills.
Last Human
Lister gazed out of the porthole and catalogues the series of disasters that had led him to this point in space and time: the bad decisions, the poor career choices, the unreliable friendships that had led him here on a prison ship bound for the most inhospitable penal colony in the outer cosmos…
and all he’d ever wanted was to be a soft metal guitar icon. This is the beginning of the third and eagerly awaited red dwarf novel where Lister starts out by searching for his Doppelganger and ends up having the future of the human race on his shoulders.
Backwards
This is the third adventure of the unlikely space heroes of the cult TV hit ‘Red Dwarf’ Lister, Rimmer, Kryten, Holly and the Cat as they continue their epic journey through frontal lobe knotting realities. We join them just as Dave Lister has finally found his way back to planet Earth which is good. What’s bad, however, is that time isn’t running in quite the right direction. And if he doesn’t get off the planet soon, he’s going to have to go through puberty again Backwards. If his crewmates can’t help him, Lister will carry on growing younger until he becomes a baby, then an embryo, meeting a very sticky end indeed.
