Harry Harrison, 'the Monty Python of the spaceways' declares the Daily Telegraph on the back cover of this Stainless Steel Rat sequel. Well, that's somewhat wide of the mark, but they are ripping yarns.This one's a particularly strong episode in the series, I think, with our hero pitted against a genuinely formidable and sinister foe.

This story takes off a few months after the end of the first book, "The Stainless Steel Rat". It follows James Bolivar diGriz, who is a con-man employed by a special agency aimed at defeating serious crime and other bad things, in this case, galactic conquest.I enjoy the way these stories unfold, and I like the glee with which the narrator (audio book) provides as he tells certain events. I wonder if these stories inspired Richard K. Morgan in some ways. Takeshi, from Morgan's books, has a

It was an okay read and maybe if I had ever started this series from the beginning I would be more invested in the whole story arc, but if that was what I planned to do, I never did get any of the other books...
Slippery Jim strikes again! Just as the lovable rogue is about to settle down, the Special Corps send him out on an undercover mission infiltrating the invading military of Cliaand to discover just how mysterious grey men are bolstering their forces.This was another rollicking fast-paced intergalactic mission impossible with a wonderfully acerbic wit.

Gotta love a master spy/thief/nogoodnik who infiltrates intergalactic empires while sneaking in booze to avoid the DTs.
Sometimes..you want a simple, somewhat silly, book that is a quick read. And this hits all those points. There's zero depth, zero drama, but good fun.

The Rat, fresh from marrying his homicidal sweetheart Angelina, is sent to the oppressive planet Cliaand to investigate why they are invading other planets. This is probably the novel that sets the formula for all the other novels in Tis sequence. It is fast, madcap, full of ridiculous capers and adventures and full of Jim's trademark larceny and sheer genius at improvisation. The sequence where he breaks out of the military base then breaks back in again is superb. It fleshes out the ideas andHarry Harrison, 'the Monty Python of the spaceways' declares the Daily Telegraph on the back cover of this Stainless Steel Rat sequel.
