To be even more honest the reason for this is because I find it a little bit daunting. This is my first reading experience of this author and so to start waxing lyrical would just be plain silly – there are plenty of people out there who could really do him justice rather than me just regurgitating facts from Wiki! The reason I chose this book? To be honest I don’t read much sci fi and that’s something I like to address. I did think about writing a little introduction about the author but, to be honest, I’m probably not the best person to do that. I’ve read a few sci fi books already but the first that I can put towards my Vintage event is Stainless Steel Rat by Harry Harrison. We all love a cheat – don’t deny it! It’s like finding a short cut or a bargain – it makes you happy! Basically, it’s a bit like cheating – you read one book and it counts for both events. This month I’m reading some Vintage Sci Fi for Little Red Reviewer’s Vintage Sci Fi month – which also dovetails quite nicely with Stainless Steel Droppings Sci Fi Experience. Crime, con artists and capers in outerspace? sign me up! The Stainless Steel Rat by Harry Harrison In today’s guest post, Lynn talks Stainless Steel Rat, and how she got started reading more speculative fiction. We started commenting on each other’s blog, and before we knew it we were doing read alongs together and plotting to take over the world! Okay, not that last part. I’ve been friends with fellow blogger Lynn, of Lynn’s Book Blog for years.
