Isolated moments of humour but it's really impossible to figure out the plot most of the time, and Retief has stopped being funny and become just a caricature of his former self. All of a sudden he's muscle bound and beats people up a whole lot, not just occasionally. And a Bolo got thrown in too, because poor Laumer, who (I gather) had had a stroke by this time, was I think throwing in every hit he'd ever had in an attempt to make the book work, because he had lost his sense of what a good story was and relied on events and props instead. Poor guy. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

The ceremonious protocol of the Yills was impressive, colorful, and, in the long run, deadly! It was up to Jame Retief to figure out how to respond to the Yill's overtures in the correct manner; all the while keeping his superiors from making a deadly mistake. Only one man could think quickly enough to get the job done! No library descriptions found. |

By far the greatest sci-fi series ever written. Follow James Retief and Ben Magnun on thier action packed, tounge-in-cheek adventures across the galaxy.
The Retief series started out as a series of short stories published the various science fiction pulps during the 1950's through to the 1960's. These are classic sci-fi as it was written before the days of the moon landing. All together there were more than 60 stories about Retief's space adventures.
After the death of Keith Laumer, editors began to compile collections of these classic pulp fiction stories into a book series. Each collection contains 3 to 5 or more stories.
Of the series Retief and the Warlords is my fave!
If you like Douglas Adams' Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy than you're sure to love Retief. ( )
