This book won’t make much sense to you unless you’re a fan of the TV show Red Dwarf. Luckily, I am, so I thought this was a lot of fun.
What we have here, then, is a tongue-in-cheek take on how to survive in deep space, courtesy of the Space Corp – but with a few scribbles added by the crew of Red Dwarf. It’s full of in-jokes – like references to Rachel, Rimmer’s blow-up doll – so if you don’t watch the show, you’re going to find yourself scratching your head. But I smeggin’ liked it.

This is very much a Red Dwarf take on survival with some useful and some not so useful tips on how to survive the utter destruction of your space craft as it crash lands on a planet potentially hostile to the continuing of your existence. With occasional input from the Red Dwarf crew you will learn how to and how not to survive in almost every eventually, including the rescue phase of your survival experience, complete with a little flip chart style animation in the corner to guide you on your way. Somewhat amusing, this is a rather good read, especially for the Red Dwarf fans out there.

Found this book on my shelves and in reality didn’t remember purchasing it. I love the Red Dwarf series and have watched them many times, hence finding this was really looking forward to reading it. But reality is the book doesn’t live up to the series. Some parts are interesting and funny, others sections are from my point of view were just rubbish. If you’re a big fan I’m sure you’ll like it, but if not then I’d pass.

Tthis book is by no means the pinnacle of literary greatness. But that's not what you want from a book like this! You want a couple of giggles, guffaws and a few in-jokes as you indulge in one of your favourite shows. And that's what you get here! A fab little novelty.
