Random House presents the audiobook edition of This Audiobook Will Send You to Sleep by Professor K. McCoy and Dr Hardwick, read by Bruce Alexander.

Sleep smarter

This Audiobook Will Send You to Sleep makes no claims to be fun or interesting. It is an audiobook you can listen to in full confidence that you will find absolutely nothing to stimulate your brain. An audiobook, like no other, that will afford you much sleep and copious amounts of pointless knowledge.

Where else will you hear about the political crisis in Belgium 2007–2011 or study the growth pattern of holly? And from where else can you find, in one place, an overview of railway gauges, a summary of the administrative bureaucracy of the Byzantine Empire and instructions for the creation of a collapsible music stand?

Prepare to fall fast asleep with the most boring audiobook ever published.

Includes soothing soundscape to help send you to sleep.

‘The indispensable bedside classic’ Leland Carlson, Assistant Vice President of the Dull Men’s Club

TLDR; If you have an overactive brain at bedtime, there is a good chance that this book will work for you, but if you are not sleeping because of pain, find something else instead.

I've tried *quite a lot* of the sleep apps in order to help me sleep. I get around 3-4 hours sleep per night (on average) for three reasons: 1) My brain is very active and thoughts stop me from sleeping, 2) most nights, pain wakes me up after only a few hours of sleep and I can't get back to sleep, and 3) the rare nights where I don't get pain after a few hours of sleep, I will wake up anyway because my body is used to that routine.

For getting to sleep as soon as I get into bed... this book is FANTASTIC! The first section of the book, *The Political Crisis in Belgium* section... I was asleep before the section finished!

When I wake up due to pain, the book doesn't work. The book cannot solve my pain (or at least that is not my expectation of the book).

When I wake up without pain and because of routine, the book actually works yet again! I managed 7 hours 20 mins of sleep last night (probably the most I have had in the last couple of years). I woke up three times, and each time, the book sent me back to sleep.

This book works perfectly for the sleep scenario that I purchased it for (1)... and it is a bonus for me that it also works for scenario (3).

Works better (for me) than the sleep apps!

You know when you're at a really boring lecture or talk and you can't help falling asleep? This is totally that! Can't say I've listened to much of it because it sends me to sleep in a few minutes. Brilliant book for those nights when you can't stop thinking. Perfectly performed in a clear but droney style - honestly idk how they made it without falling asleep themselves! Highly recommended.

Reminds me of some of my university lectures!

This book really does work! It is a compilation of greatly differing topics which have obviously been carefully chosen to lull the mind into a restful state while you listen. I use my audible timer to switch off the book after (say) 30 minutes but it doesn't matter if you sleep through any of the book because you can just resume where it stopped without any problem of continuity.

The best book I ever bought!

An amazing listen
