( ) Harrison, Harry. The Stainless Steel Rat. Stainless Steel Rat No. 1 (Publication order). 1961. Orion, 1998. The Stainless Steel Rat, which began life in 1957 as a story in Analog, was a breakout novel for Harry Harrison. It added a level of wit and satire to the heroic science fiction adventure narrative. He had done a little of the same for the planetary adventure in Deathworld (1960) and in Bill the Galactic Hero (1965), he would have even more fun with military science fiction just months after the Gulf of Tonkin resolution. The Stainless Steel Rat, a.k.a., Slippery Jim diGriz, is not an urbane spy in the matter of Ian Fleming; rather, he is a career criminal recruited by an intelligence agency for his criminal skills. Harrison was a good storyteller and always added something extra to the pulp science fiction tropes. Still fun after all these years. 4 stars. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
