How do you feel about your phone? Or your car? I bet you don';t think about them much, except when they go wrong. But what if they go really wrong and turn properly bad... evil, even? Join Terry Jones on a journey into the dark heart of machines. Meet the lift that took people to places they didn';t want to go, the vacuum cleaner that was too powerful, the terrifying train to anywhere and Mrs Morris, a little old lady from Glasgow, who turns out to be a very resourceful heroine... Brisk and cheerful on the outside but as dark as Roald Dahl';s finest within, Terry Jones'; collection of thirteen cautionary fables will make you look at the 'helpful' inventions that surround you in a very different way.
