About this listen

The year is 2050. The climate is in chaos, Barnsley is a broken town, and the Lightnings are eating from food banks.

Lucy lost her hairdressing job to a robot, and her 12-year-old son is being bullied at school.

So when science geek, Alfie, gets the chance to join an LA-based space mission, it doesn't take Lucy long to agree to join him.

This is a fast-paced, comedy-adventure, that is both down-to-earth and literally out of this world!

Embarrassing incidents, mind-blowing science, teenage love, crime, and a terrifying alien adventure, The First Boy in Space makes social media look like your grandmother's meeting!

WARNING: Contains a sweary mother, a sweary grandad in a string vest, and an alien that gets his head blown off. 13+
