Skylark Three / E. E. "Doc" Smith


Skylark Three

(category: science fiction, space opera)
book 2 of Skylark by

E. E. "Doc" Smith

published by Grafton Books, 1974... 86, first published in 1930
read in August 2009 (and before, many times, way back)

Agamedes' rating: 7 out of 10


Agamedes' opinion:

More aliens, more alien threats... The invulnerable spaceship needed to be upgraded; now it’s a lot bigger, faster and capable of inter-galactic travel. More fast and furious fun!

And if you're wondering what I'm talking about... see The Skylark of Space. Or, follow the author:smith link at the foot of this post, to see more books by Doc Smith.

March 2015: I've been having a bit of bad luck with books... selecting books which are bad or boring... or both.

As a break from the tedium of The Quiet Earth I re-read The Skylark of Space. Then Skylark Three... Fantastic fun !

It's great to have a few books which are well worth reading... and re-re-re...reading :-)
