4 stars

Audiobook with nephew on road trip.
In some ways dated, in some ways timeless. Helped that nephew had seen CDs and floppy discs at the museum recently (!)
He (aged 10) was engrossed and insisted we listen to it even after we got out of the car. Great introduction to the late great Terry P.
