このコンテンツについて
Ahead, where once had been only bombsite land, the Lateinos and Romiith building rose above Brentford. Within its cruel and jagged shadow, magnolias wilted in their window boxes and synthetic Gold Top became doorstep cheese...
Something sinister is happening east of Ealing. The prophecies of The Book of Revelation are being fulfilled. Lateinos & Romiith, a vast financial network, is changing all the rules with a plan to bar-code every living punter and dispense with old-fashioned money.
A diabolical scheme, which would not only end civilisation as we know it, but seriously interfere with drinking habits at the Flying Swan. Can Armageddon, Apocalypse and other inconveniences of the modern age be stopped by the humble likes of Pooley and Omally, even with the help of Professor Slocombe and the time-warped Sherlock Holmes of Baker Street...?
Robert Rankin describes himself as a teller of tall tales. The Morning Star describes him as 'The Master of Silliness', and his publisher describes him as The Master of Far Fetched Fiction. He is the author of more than thirty novels, of which he has sold millions of copies, and he makes people laugh around the world. Robert loves going on tour, signing books for readers, and his appearances at signings and conventions are legendary, often including a stand-up routine, a song (accompanied by his 'air-ukulele'), and an always-entertaining question-and-answer session.

Audible制作部より
The novels of British writer Robert Rankin are so out-there, so imaginative, so fantastical and hilarious, that they necessitated a new genre: "far-fetched fiction". In the third book of the Brentford Trilogy (of which there are nine books), aimless drunks Pooley and Omally must face a Satanic conspiracy that aims to barcode everyone on Earth. Who could have guessed that so many wild adventures would land on the doorstep of these two blokes' favorite bar, the Flying Swan? Robert Rankin performs his own work, lending his impeccable comic timing and amiable London accent to the caper.
