This book, based on the Saboteur Short Listed spoken word show, is one boy's story as he grows up loving all things Sci-Fi, Horror and Fantasy. It combines anecdotes and opinions with poetry inspired by the genres and his own life. Funny, informative and at times touching, this book is a love letter to all those TV programmes, films, books and games that have meant so much to so many. Some comments about the show left on the Saboteur Awards website: "A witty and wonderful trip through Sci-Fi and comic fandom. A great balance of comedy, pathos and poetry" "Awesome!" "CHOPPER LIVES!" "Colin is a fantastic writer and uses every word to great effect. Nothing is wasted." "Cos I get mentioned, Regards, Phantom." "For a show which is about Sci-Fi, it manages to include non-fans and not alienate them (pun not intended, or should it have been?)" "Witty and intelligent - warm and nostalgic. His timing and delivery are wonderful!"
