The Stainless Steel Rat series is widely known and admired and has been for many years. This book explains how Jim DeGriz morphed into the Stainless Steel Rat and embarked on his adventures in the Galaxy. Very good reading.

IF this audio book had been released in the 21st century rather than in '85 it would have been called a prequel. Definitely better than the sequeles to the Stainless Steel Rat, focusing on how Slippery Jim became a a criminal mastermind, rather than how he uses his criminals mastermind to keep criminals in check. returnreturnStarts out with robbing stores for candy bars, selling those to other kids, and then getting caught on purpose robbing a bank in hopes of learning from a true master. returnreturnFinally finds such a master and they make a humorous journey through procu-swine burgers to a far off planet.
