Kenneth Buff

Dick and Henry and the Temporary Detective by Kenneth Buff is the book I had been waiting for. I love these two guys, well one is a robot but he is still one of the guys. I think of these books as a different category, a 'cozy sci-fi'. I know the author is cringing right now but hear me out. It has all the fun of sci-fi, the space travel, the action, shoot outs, robots, mysteries, creatures, the aliens, the danger of space, everything that a space opera would have EXCEPT those darn hundred unpronounceable names or planets, aliens, and plant life, not filled with cuss words, and it concentrates on a mission and not the whole universe to save at one time in one episode. Some space opera books are just too much. I like these books because the have everything a good sci-fi needs and has the human touch that some other books lack. I like how the characters are developing in these books too. Can a robot develop? Um...I was given this book to read but under no obligation to leave a review but this book is so good, you have to read it, and the first one. There is so much you will miss. Who doesn't want an adventure with a robot by your side? Robots trying to kill you? No adventure? Great plot and well developed characters and humor make this a great read. Thanks for letting me read this.… (más)

Dick and Henry: The Space Saga by Kenneth Buff is a fun romp through space with a captain and his robot. Although they are just transporters, they end up in all kinds of predicaments. It is fun, witty, and I look forward to the next book. It is a short book which is sometimes nice, a quick book before bed. These two made me smile a lot! Thanks for such a great little book, just what I needed. Silly situations and sillier ways to get out of it. Clever dialogue, great plot and unique characters. Loved it, thanks.… (más)
