The Limpet Syndrome (book one)

John’s dead...but that’s just the beginning.

Hell has a problem. Two, actually. The souls of Sandy Logan and Ian Noble are missing. This, as it happens, is a big deal. Brimstone, the demon responsible for the Soul Catcher, believes the most likely outcome is the end of the Universe.

It’s obviously only a guess: It’s never happened before.

Soul Catchers (book two)

No one can live forever.

John’s gone, and even he doesn’t truly know where. Demons, pigeons, gods, and a band of ex-dictators in plastic bodies are all eager to find him. Will they get to him before he can enact his revenge?

Dead Ends (book three)

Is there a happy ever afterlife?

War is coming! Against gods, between species, and against the afterlife itself. Heroes will emerge from unlikely places, and John will yet again be forced to intervene in the future of mankind.

Existential Crisis (companion book)

A face-off between science and religion. Demon Top Trumps. A 14-billion-year timeline and the truth about pigeons. The definitive guide to the afterlife and a must listen for fans of the trilogy. Only available in this box set and to Limpet Club members.

Long Imaginative Weird Adventures

Three books as one makes for a very long audible listen. Especially as traversing different hellish, earthly, and heavenly universes gets very descriptive and imaginative throughout. You really get your imagination twisted, expanded, at at times stretched with this trilogy.

There’s an audio error in book 2 Soul Catchers Chapter 17. The dialogue of the Mr Noir character is missing from a conversation 18:05-07:56 - 19:49-06:12.

Spoilers may follow.

The bit where Grace explains what grace is had me tearing up.

The giving birth scene when Nash becomes a bunny, was unbelievably crazy weird.

The thing about describing hellscapes is it’s often difficult for readers to envision what the author has in his mind.

When Grace the neutral explains her love near the end I absolutely burst into tears of emotion, such simple yet profound words of explaining what love is.

The way each chapter cuts off at random cliffhangers and then starts up again in someone else’s storyline, is confusing. Even when it goes back to the other storyline eventually at random.

Very preachy at the end with Jon’s speech.

Overall a wild and weird book with characters of many species on Earth. My favourite characters were Sandy and Ian in book 1, and Scrumpy in books 2 and 3.

take a chance on this one - definatly a good read!

one thing I gotta say: this narrator is bloody amazing! wish there where six stars and possibly an award to give him... - this is the first time I've ever had reason to use the 'more by this narrator' button.


the story is certainly wacky and original and while I wish it was all set in the afterlife as those are easily the best and most imaginative bits of the book, the whole thing is unique and interesting.


the writing could be a little better and theres the occasional clumsy turn of phrase but more than made up for with the flashes of brilliant, brilliant writing and satirical rants that you see sprinkled throughout the book.


overall definatly pick it up (plug it in) and give it a listen - it will surprise and enrich you. if only we could just stay in hell and explore the wonderful worlds the author has created and stop finding excuses to get back to the real world...

Incredible Story and Narration. Fabulous!

Not a dull moment! The voices of the characters were an absolute joy. I really don’t know how it was done so well. What talent from writer & narrator.
An incredible achievement to put it all together as the story was a rollercoaster. So unusual.
I highly recommend.
