Who is James Retief

Ranked #12,265 in Books, Poetry & Writing, #462,638 overall

James Bond in outer space. By far the greatest sci-fi series ever written. Follow James Retief and Ben Magnun on their action packed, tongue-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 good old-time 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. In the 1970's, Keith Laumer began to compile collections of these classic pulp fiction stories into a book series. Each book in this collection contains 3 to 5 or more stories. I own nearly the entire set. Of these books, Retief and the Warlords is my fave, closely followed by Retief Emissary to the Stars. If you like Douglas Adams' Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy than you're sure to love Retief.
