Reviews
Fast-moving and very funny -- Evening Standard
The Monty Python of the spaceways -- Daily Telegraph
Truly breathtaking -- Times Literary Supplement
Endlessly 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. -- Richard Morgan
