Good, old fashioned fun sci-fi !
tongue-in-cheek, full of hokey tech stuff, and lot's of great characters, many which are blatant carictatures of other fictional characters. This series has gone on too long, his last ones are not as fresh, but the early parts of the series are fun... Check them out... ------------------  The RudeDawg Known in these Forgotten Realms as Perin LightEyes |

Stainless Steel Rat is the first, yes, but he did a prequel called A Stainless Steel Rat is Born which is very good indeed.
And yes, the earlier SSR books are better than the later ones - they get rather TOO over the top! They are all worth reading though! If you cannot find them to purchase in regular book stores, try either specialist sc-fi & fantasy bookshops like Andromeda, or your local Public Library. Books in the hand are MUCH more comfortable to read than text on the screen!
