From which I awake, alas
This collection of 12 tales, one of which reminds of the classic of the seminal author of pioneering fabulous space opera, E.E. "Doc" Smith's "Spacehounds of IPC" in Harrison's "Space Rats of the CCC". We are lured with down-to-earth criminal acts with famous last words, including the dope on Frankenstein; knowing robots; And, where would we be without one on "Bill, Galactic Hero", protagonist of a series of books -- yes, he's a drunken affable, yet ya gotta love im.
Fast facts, acts, argot, as always, dot Harrison's uniquely humerous renderings.
