Publisher's summary

Aging Rock God Jim Sullivan is heading for the quiet life on his tiny newly acquired island, off the coast of Cornwall. That is until he sends a letter to the King of England, announcing his intent to declare independence from the UK and appointing himself king.

Determined not to cede one inch of British territory, the UK government dispatches low-level Foreign Office researcher John Cabot to put a stop to Sullivan's ambitions.

What they didn't anticipate was Cabot's tenacity for unearthing information they'd rather he didn't, or Sullivan's relentless, but completely unfounded, optimism in his own ideas.

Armed with nothing more than a guitar and a spreadsheet, can these two stand up to the might of the British Empire?

No contest.

Mr. Goodenough charges again.

Little Dibny gets a neighbor and Mr. Goodenough gets his rents in. Fun listen, excellently narrated, worth it.
