Book Reviews of Galactic Patrol (The Lensman Series, Book 3)
Book Review: The Original Beginning of the Lensman Series
Summary: 5 Stars
Originally published as a multi-part serial in the late 1930s by the great John W. Campbell in Astounding Science Fiction this was the original begining of the classic Lensman series. I recently reread it after *mumble*mumble* years and found it to be pretty much as I remembered it: a storyline that just doesn't stop once it starts (to quote John Clute).Personally, I would suggest starting with this one, reading the rest - but skipping the Smith intro in the subsequent volumes; read 'em like the folks in the 1930s and 1940s did - not knowing the BIg Story behind it all.
(Of course I'm rather prejudiced about these books . . .)
