Red Dwarf Omnibus
Red Dwarf Omnibus | Grant Naylor
1 post | 5 read | 2 to read
Here are the first two novels of the cult series Red Dwarf in one volume Red Dwarf and Better Than Life plus the first draft of the original TV pilot script. It all when Dave Lister is celebrating his twenty-fourth birthday on a Monopoly board pub crawl round London, and somehow ends up three million years from Earth, marooned in the wrong dimension of the wrong reality, and down to his last two cigarettes. Together with a dead man, a senile computer, a deranged sanitation mechanoid with an overactive guilt chip and the best-dressed entity in all six known universes, the last remaining member of the human race begins his epic journey home.

So I'm integrating this into my "read now" pile along with The Haunted Bookshop, that was put aside temporarily. Funny Sci-FI. It was a show on the BBC and I think I saw a snippet on YouTube, so I hunted down the book(s). Of course our mates across the pond are totally familiar with this one! ???...

JanuarieTimewalker13 True story: when I was a kid I had a jigsaw of the Union Jack ...I loved it, and I thought it was the American flag until I discovered it wasn't in probably kindergarten...oh I was so disappointed, until I decided..hmmm, I really like the stars, I guess I'll learn to love it! Lol 8y
JanuarieTimewalker13 Wow! It just dawned on me that I'm definitely a product of the British Invasion...I was 5 in 1967...so there you go..we always had music on in my home (I still do). 8y
Foxyfictionista My husband and I have just finished watching season 8. The series is so much smegging fun!! I didn't know there was a book though!!!!!!! 😵😍 8y

megt I read Red Dwarf earlier this year and really enjoyed it! I definitely need to track down more of the series and check out the show. 8y
JanuarieTimewalker13 @Foxyfictionista hahaha...smegging is all over this book!! I wonder if my library would have it on DVD..I definitely would binge that!! 8y
Foxyfictionista @JanuarieTimewalker13 Definitely check it out if you can find it. Lister's Liverpool accent is the best! And Rimmer and Cat are fantastic physical actors. I want to watch it all over again now. It was so much fun! 8y
JanuarieTimewalker13 @Foxyfictionista sorry, just seeing this now! Ok, I will!! Wonder if my library would have the DVD? 7y
Foxyfictionista @JanuarieTimewalker13 They might if you live in a big city. I'd never heard of it until I moved to the UK (although I don't exactly have my finger on the pulse of arcane geekery). It's worth looking and maybe asking about though. 7y
JanuarieTimewalker13 @Foxyfictionista unfortunately, they don't have it and the complete series on amzn is about $69. I'll wait for awhile, and see what happens. Was there a Red Dwarf film? 7y
Foxyfictionista @JanuarieTimewalker13 that's a shame on both counts! I've only watched up to season 8 so I'm not sure what else is out there. There must be a way you can watch it. It's on the UK Netflix. I don't have the US version so you might want to check that. Hmmmm. I guess you'll just have to come over for a visit! 7y
JanuarieTimewalker13 @Foxyfictionista hahaha!! Yes, fly to London, and binge Red Dwarf. First I have to lose this cane I'm using bc this is the slowest recuperation in the world..PS..never faint, fall backwards and break your hip...now I have 3 pins and trying to relearn how to walk. So I'm sure I'll be setting off alarms to boot at the airport. I would love to see all of the U.K. One day! 7y
Foxyfictionista @JanuarieTimewalker13 Oh no!! You poor thing!! I hope you recover soon! 7y
JanuarieTimewalker13 @Foxyfictionista just seeing this now!!! Thank you😘 7y
