I feeling leaving out the Gunmen Of The Apocalypse end story kinda cheapen it. Like the whole Ace Rimmer storyline building up to ... well, nothing, both him and Rimmer are killed off abruptly, the new Rimmer never meets either, so no lessons are learned ... at least the Western ending gives the story more mileage. Plus the cat losing his virginity bit is a crime to lose. Wonder why they had to go. Still great to hear all of it 😁

In case you didn't notice, they were replaced pretty quickly and conveniently... Basically set up for more adventures.

I think this is the main difference between Naylor and Grant as writers. I'd say Grant tells the better contained and entertaining story, but it doesn't really come together and just kinda stops with no real payoff. We're shown the difference between Ace and Rimmer, but in the end it doesn't really matter because they both die and neither learns anything. All of Rimmer's (and Kryton's) character development from both this AND all of "Better than Life" is also erased and pointless. While Naylor wrote a story that's kind of all over the place, he does tie up all the loose ends and gives each character a fitting and deserved conclusion. I prefer Backwards but always need Last human to cheer me up.

Thanks so much for uploading these. I wonder why the audiobook version doesn't have the 'Gunmen' section from the book. I really enjoyed that part, so it's a shame we can't listen to it.

Agreed. Plus it's the author reading this himself, why would he leave out part of the book? Also, I wish this had been Chris Barrie, because his impressions were fantastic. It was still pretty decent though.

@@LeeOCGaming Yeah the entire final section of the novel is a re-hash of Gunmen of the Apocalypse, it was sadly excised from this abridged version.

Lee LFC Backwards was the last book released, but technically both last human and backwards are alternative sequels to better then life with no ties to one an other.

@@gallyt00r dose your version of the audio book have the part about them bringing kochanski back from the dead? In last human it says that they brought her back from her ashes by taking them to the backwards planet and I'm wondering if that happens in some versions of backwards or just happens between books

Connor conman if I’m remembering right she does come back due to time running backwards . It does get a little complicated to follow so you really need to pay attention when reading/listening to the book. It’s been a while since I made my way through it so I’m probably forgetting a couple of things
