OMG! Hopefully our future will be different!

It's a nice small easy-going story.
It's a good reading for a on the move listening, as it does not require absolute concentration.
It's an idea of a scary future...
But who knows???!
The narrative and the narrator voice are great.

Steampunk awesomeness

It's so addictive, the story has kept me on the edge of my seat though it's entirety. Can't wait for the prequel.

Harry Lampeter is back!

Harry, along with his group of colorful friends and “frenemies” is back! This tale is jam-packed with spies, bombs, and secret meetings!

Roger Ley has a talent for keeping things fresh, in a world where everything is old and rusty!

Craig Bowles narrates the story beautifully. The reader is so deeply immersed in the story, that it feels as if one is sitting right at the table with Shaky Tom and Harry Plotting shenanigans.

Steampunk fun & frolics

After enjoying the first in this series I was happy to receive a copy of the second audiobook which I listened to while drivng my work van making deliveries. I think I had a smile on my face most of the day while following the antics of Harry & Telford and all the others characters. Plenty of sarcastic & satyrical humour and the idea concerning the House of Lords gets a big thumbs up from me, loved it. A thoroughly enjoyable listen, well written and with a great narrator.

I received a free copy of this book at my request and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Steam Pump Adventures.

Imagine a world where a laboratory developed plastic eating bacteria has escaped and caused havoc by eating everything it could, Windows fall out of buildings because their seals have gone, electrical equipment fails throughout the world because the plastic coating wires has been eaten away, you get the plot. This the basis for this wonderful story from Roger Ley. It is hilarious in parts and a brilliant read. The characters are great and a lot of thought has gone into naming them even, like Telford Stephenson and an American Soldier called Hurlican to name but 2. Harry is a brilliant character if a little naughty at times and the dancing girls all add to the enjoyment of this book. Craig Bowles once again brings his own inimitable style to his narration which only makes it more listenable. I have already listened to it twice since getting it yesterday as i was a little tired first time round and heard more the second time. Would highly recommend and hope more of Rogers work will be introduced to Audible soon.
This audiobook was given to me for free by the author at my request and I provided this honest and voluntary review.

Well, if you can't take a joke, you shouldn't play

This is book 2 of the Steampunk adventures of Harry Lampeter. England and Scotkand are still at war, but this time not so much with each other, as against their new evil overlords from the USA.

With all the plastic gone, the world has returned to a new era of Steam Engines, Zeppelins and bicycles. plenty of vices still around though, and money and adventure to be made.

A Fun Listen

This is a carry-on from Harry Lampeter and the war with Scotland and according to book 2 still a war with Scotland but a lull at the moment and the Americans keeping the piece! although their ulterior motive is to make Gt Britain one of their unions. Harry working for MI6 sometimes has been acquired to get back our plans for the fleet of ships were building which was stolen by Telford Stephenson. How will he get them back is more of a tit-for-tat situation.
Love the characters and the shenanigans this book offers a different era and a great listen especially as technology is going backwards and not forward makes this a compelling listen. and we have our own Graig Bowles narrating it.
