Dwarfing Heaven December 21, 2006
If you have ever seen, and enjoyed, the surreal and cult classic Red Dwarf, this book is a must. The insane situations that the Lister, Rimmer, Cat, Holly (and later Kryten) get up to are quite simply hilarious on teh screen and the first book follows more or less the storyline of the first 3-4series. its promotes and expands on some of the storylines that could never had been suitable televised in the late 80s & ealry 90s like Rimmers capitalist empire and listers original story. i simply could not put the omnibus down and have read it time after time.
for fans of: red dwarf (obviously), hitch-hikers guide, other rob grant books (imcompetance and colony... both worth a look) and life in general.
Red dwarf - an oldie but a goodie March 3, 2006

straight from the writers of the hit SCI-FI show Red Dwarf. This book, written by Rob Grant and Doug naylor (Grant Naylor),has to be the perfect additon to any dwarfers' collection.
the majourity of the 1st book 'Infinity welcomes careful drivers' ties up many of the loose ends the early seires' (1-4/5) failed to cover/broadcast such as what ever happend to all those other Cats? where as the 2nd book 'Better than life' continues the journey of Lister and co In the literacy world as well as tieing up someof the issues in the Later series'(5/6 -8/7) and provideing connections to the other books 'Backwards and 'Last human'.
this is a Fantastic book a must for any Dwarf Fan, like myself,and all the Grant Naylor books are 'un-put-downable...' !! Read it, Read it now! you will not be dissapointed. :D

I love this book so much it is unbelievable. It is often laugh out loud funny and the gang complement each other so well! I have to say my favourite character is Lister followed closely by Rimmer they are both so brilliant. I would recommend this book for anyone, even if they are not science fiction fans as it has little to do with reality! It would be an ideal christmas present for anybody that can read! I cannot wait to start on the other books.
 Along the lines of "Hitchhikers' Guide" November 8, 2005

The Red Dwarf omnibus is along the lines of the Hitchhikers' Guide the Galaxy. I don't know if Brits wrote both, but the humor certainly seems British. I was hopeful when I began reading it and was not disappointed. After a few years I went back to it. I actually thought it was another book that I'd not liked quite as much, but happily my memory was faulty. Lister manages to get into the strangest situations in his journeys through space and time. With the Cat, Rimmer and Holly (oops, forgot the happily cleaning robot Kryten) life will never be the same. If you like British humor, this book will make you laugh.
THE FUNNIEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ! June 14, 2004
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I must have read this book about ten times and I never get bored of it. The gags come at you fast and furious, the story is well written, Lister reminds me of my brother, Rimmer reminds me of someone in my maths class when I was at school many moons ago. But the show is well and truly stolen by the talking toaster who cracks me up completely. One minute he is making "toastie products" and the next he is discussing quantum physics with Holly the senile computer and lecturing the crew how to escape a black hole. Trust me, buy this book and start laughing. Once you start reading, laughing won't be difficult, believe me. It got so bad at one point that I almost demanded a sedative from a doctor.
