    Praise for The Stainless Steel Rat

    • Fast-moving and very funny - Evening StandardThe Monty Python of the spaceways - Daily TelegraphTruly breathtaking - Times Literary SupplementEndlessly inventive and studded end to end with laugh-out-loud hilarity. What Terry Pratchett has done for fantasy, Harry Harrison did resoundingly for SF. His Stainless Steel Rat storms the barricades of po-faced Golden Age SF with laughing gas grenades and rams an explosive charge right up its complacent rock-ribbed arse.Abounding in quick action and quicker jokes...The Stainless Steel Rat series shows Harrison's talents to the best advantage - Science Fiction Review
