|summary=Brookmyre takes a step away from crime thrillers to try out science fiction. He's an enjoyable writer, but this time the decent pacing and humorous moments don't entirely cover up an idea that has been used elsewhere.

The title of Christopher Brookmyre's debut novel, ''Quite Ugly One Morning'' was enough to make me pick it up, but it was the quality of the content that has kept me reading his work. He writes crime thrillers with a humour that extends beyond the amusing titles. ''Bedlam'', however, is something a little different, a nod towards the science fiction which, the author biography suggests, people have been nagging him to write.
