Excellent read. A planet that could be a paradise is ruled by a totally corrupt president who cheats, steals from and murders any citizen that dares to question his rule. Enter the Stainless Steel Rat who is determined to oust the evil president, even if it means he must become a politician himself - that is how serious he is about it. As usual with the adventures with Slippery Jim Di Griz, the action is nonstop and highly enjoyable.

3 stars

A quick read, like all of the series. In this episode, the Rat is tasked with cleaning up a corrupt banana republic - or was he? I forget the particular MacGuffin that started this one off. Less of the usual criminality, more of his moral code, and a clever way of ensuring things stay on the up-and-up for a while with his "dying wish".
