Making History

By: Stephen Fry

Narrated by: Stephen Fry, Richard E Grant

Brought to you by Penguin.

Michael Young is a brilliant young history student whose life is changed when he meets Leo Zuckerman, an ageing physicist with a theory that can change worlds.

Together they realise that they have the power to alter history and eradicate a great evil. But tinkering with timelines is more dangerous than they can imagine and nothing - past, present or future - will ever be the same again.

Making History is funny, moving, romantic and told with Stephen Fry's characteristic skill and brilliance.

Critic reviews

'His best novel yet... an extravagant, deeply questioning work of science fiction' GQ

'Making History has the imaginative pull that keeps the pages turning while the tea gets cold and the cat gets the goldfish' The Independent

'Stephen Fry at his twinkling best' Sunday Times

Fantastic!

I really loved it! I journeyed with the characters, thought about my own TIM change

Loved every minute of it

Such great a story, and such great story telling, I loved every minute of it.

Extremely enjoyable!

The book was extremely enjoyable, story wise and the performance of the narrators. I wish there was a sequel.

Not a great book, but I enjoyed it.

It is a good book but no Mr. Fry's best. I loved the premise but I felt that it really didn't bring anything new to the genre. I can't say more than that without ruining the book. I had a few laugh out loud moments that certainly gave me some funny looks in the Dr's office.

Stephen Fry is his usual outstanding self as narrator.

Stephen Fry superb

The story is fascinating, the premise incredibly well conceived and, as always, flawlessly narrated by the author.
