Cover Art: Jim Burns (illustrator). 1st Edition. © 1987: 2nd in the 'Stainless Steel Rat' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Slippery Jimmy diGriz crashes out of prison and into a galactic war. Can a mere youth be expected to steal money, slug cops, fight swordsmen and rescue girls? Of course - if he is a Stainless Steel Rat in training. And this is just the beginning. For only a short smuggle across the bay is the invincible land of Nevenkebla. Run by the military, armed to the teeth, death on strangers. Should the Rat go there? He has no choice. Because the top dog in this baying army of killers is General Zennor. The fiend incarnate who caused the death of The Bishop, Jim's best, and only friend. But can he do it? Can he, alone and singlehandedly, pit himself against the most destructive army in the known universe? You bet he can - if he is the Stainless Steel Rat we know and love. Every Nevenkeblan youth is drafted into the army: there is no escape. The rockets blast into space as this heavily armed and unbeatably destructive force is launched against an unarmed and helpless planet. But it is also an army that has been penetrated by the Rat. They are all after him, but he is after them - and they are all after victory. The odds of success are three million soldiers to one Stainless Steel Rat. Good odds. For the Rat!:- Review(s): "The Rat can hold his head high amongst the most elevated superhero company - Bulldog Drummond, James Bond and Flash Gordon included" - Times Literary Supplement:- (original cost £9.95).
