For some reason this never matched up to the first in the series "Who Goes There" - that was very funny. ( ) So sad that Bob's last published novel is this lightweight work. A sequel to his earlier comic work "Who goes here?", this suffers from sequelitis. It takes the themes of the earlier book and reworks them. Unfortunately, what was funny in the original - partly because Bob was a comic genius but hardly ever put that side of his personality in his novels - is just hackneyed in this one. The cover shows that it was intended that Bob would write more about the hero of these two novels, a character improbably (but for very good reasons) called 'Warren Peace'. Sadly, the cover is so poor that I did not buy it in hardback! If you want to see Bob Shaw's talent at work, look elsewhere. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Pertenece a las seriesWarren Peace (2)
Warren Peace joined the Space Legion to forget - and forget what it was he wanted to forget. In his quest to find out who he'd been he got turned into an Oscar by a symbiotic alien parasite. Oscars are invulnerable superbeings, immune to everything and with no need for air, food or drink, let alone sex and drugs and rock'n'roll. Marooned on an airless planet with a whole bunch of them, Warren is bored "witless." Then a chance encounter with a lump of pryktonite turns him back into a human, and Warren embarks on a new career- as a galactic troubleshooter. His first mission takes him (with a couple of Oscars providing the muscle) to a water-covered planet where a company producing a mind-blowing drug is having trouble with its alien work force. It seems they're smuggling alien porn mags on to the planet, and are too...tired to work. Warren sets out to find the solution... "Warren Peace" is the second bizarre episode in the series that began with "Who Goes Here?" By the acclaimed author of "Orbitsville" and the "Ragged Astronauts" trilogy.
