Produktbeschreibung

A long-lost cousin, a shipful of swine, and a wild intergalactic journey - the Stainless Steel Rat is back in action!

After a ten-year absence, James Bolivar "Slippery Jim" DiGriz, Special Corps agent, master con man, and interstellar criminal (retired), returns in one of the most enduring series in modern science fiction. Living high on the hog on the planet of Moolaplenty, Jim's comfortable life is suddenly disrupted when a long-lost cousin and a shipful of swine arrive to drain his bank account and send him and his lovely wife, Angelina, wandering the stars on a madcap adventure.

In Stainless Steel Rat Returns, Harry Harrison brings his most famous character out of retirement for a grand tour of the galaxy. With a cocktail in his hand, a smile on his lips, and larceny in his heart, the Stainless Steel Rat sets off in search of excitement, gravitons, and a way to rid himself of the troublesome pigs. This darkly satiric space opera promises thrills, humor, and a wild ride through the cosmos.
