Rat Fans REJOICE!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Whaddaya mean this is the worst of the bunch? Now, I'm a serious rat fan; I've read almost all the SSR books, and this one fits in very nicely! It's got a fairly good plot, altheough characters don't really need to pop out of nowhere like that.
Business as usual for DiGriz

"The Stainless Steel Rat" series of SF adventures is one of the most interesting and exciting sequences of novels ever published, and I was looking forward to reading this one. It is as good as the others... ...Unfortunately, it is pretty much the same as the others. That isn`t a criticism- I don`t mind reading a series of similar novels, as long as they are good, but you do get a distinct feeling of deja vu when Jim is picked up by the Interworld police, and is forced to go on a suicide mission no-one else will accept, etc, etc. On the whole, though, the book is good, albeit somewhat ripped off "Escape from New York". There are also a few bits when you will wince- Harrison`s lyrics for the Rat`s band are just plain embarrassing, as are some of the rather heavy handed jokes. Overall, though, rather good.
