Dani Zweig's Belated Reviews #30: Keith Laumer
Overview of keith laumer's writing career.
http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~susan/sf/dani/030.htm

Extractions: Belated Reviews #30: Keith Laumer Keith Laumer's writing career spanned three decades, but almost all his better work appeared in the sixties, the first of those decades. He's a second-tier writer: None of his works are outstanding, but some of it comes close, and a good deal of it is solid, enjoyable story-telling. "Dinosaur Beach" (****-) is his best book, IMO, a short but elegant time travel novel. The 'back-history' of the novel is a history of successive eras of time travel. The first era took no precautions and made a mess of history. The second era took extensive precautions, and made a worse mess. The third era attempted to undo the damage, and just made it worse yet. I think you see the pattern. The hero of this story is Ravel, who is a *fourth* era agent, which means that he and his are working to repair the damage done by all the earlier eras as well as fighting agents of all the earlier eras, who think they know better. It's a nicely crafted and entertaining yarn of time loops within time loops and secrets within secrets. There are about a dozen 'Retief' books, most of them collections of humorous short stories about Jame Retief (not his full name), of the CDT (Corps Diplomatique Terrestrienne). It's really a one-joke series, but it's a joke that Laumer tells well, and that stands retelling: The CDT isa *very* broad satire on the American State Department at its worst, always seeking to give aid and comfort to its enemies, always ignorant of local realities, always exacerbating problems through appeasement just when a show of firmness would make them go away. And Retief is forever saving the day by ignoring policy and doing the sensible, or even heroic, thing. (This does not make him popular within the Corps.) Stated this baldly it doesn't sound like a basis for that many stories, but the storytelling is deft, the situations and the aliens are amusing, the sledgehammer satire can be ignored.

BOLOS
A list of books by keith laumer which I recommend for reading
http://www.gpfn.sk.ca/~geis/bolo

Extractions: What is a Bolo ? On the surface, the Bolo is simply a 'monster' tank, the largest land-borne combat unit ever built by the human race. A high-tech combination of electronics, armour-plate and deadly weapons. As such, they hardly seem worthy of the high esteem and honours which have been applied to them. However, the Bolo is also something far more. Yes, they are symbols of brute force, intransigent defiance and adamantine will. But, on a deeper level, the Bolo is the "Lancelot" of the future, the perfect knight and gentleman. Charged with the defense of all humanity from those foes, human and alien, who would threaten the existence of our way of life and of the entire species. They are a return to the age of chivalry, to the dedication that a warrior class exists solely to protect those who can not protect themselves. Controlled by their tireless electronic brains, which are programmed to admit no possibility of defeat, the gigantic robot tanks are almost indestructible, and nearly unstoppable. Almost. Nearly. A sufficiently determined enemy, armed with nearly limitless firepower and willing to sustain terrible losses could destroy a Bolo. But, even a terminally damaged Bolo is still an opponent to reckon with. And, so long as a Bolo's artificial intelligence retains a flicker of conciousness, its indomitable drive to defend the human race against all enemies will propel it forward. Bolos May Be Destroyed...

Extractions: Comunque, preceduti da una confusa e banalissima presentazione di Gianni Pilo, sono qui contenuti due romanzi, La guerra di Retief e Il ritorno di Retief (quest'ultimo, credo, inedito in Italia), assieme a cinque racconti ("Il gigante assassino", "Problema di coesistenza", "Retief, gran diplomatico", "Questione di protocollo", "Fastidi con la diga"). Si tratta nella maggioranza dei casi di materiale già pubblicato durante gli anni '70 da Galassia Galassia fosse Sandro Sandrelli, l'autore italiano che come spirito più si avvicina a questi prodotti... ricordate "Pene d'amor perdute" e le altre storie dei Fannulloni di Orione?). Retief, eroe che molti conosceranno, sguazza in questo contesto come un pesce nell'acqua, si allea immancabilmente con gli oppressi di turno, fa rivoltare il pianeta e conclude alleanze vantaggiose in barba ai suoi superiori: uno schema fisso dall'ideologia ben precisa, e che nelle singole opere è pure divertente e coinvolgente quel che basta, ma che in cinquecento e passa pagine antologiche penso possa finire per stuccare anche il più ingenuo dei lettori, nonostante il fuoco di fila di trovate. La traduzione, poi, piuttosto confusionaria (specie ne Il ritorno di Retief ), non aiuta molto a districarsi nel gioco continuo di rovesciamenti, risse, e "allegri massacri", che andrebbe semmai centellinato nei momenti di massimo relax.

Extractions: The Berkley Paperback Originals When most collectors think about paberback originals series, they most often think of the Ballantines. Coming a bit later, with no less cool of a stable of books, were the Berkley originals. Known mostly for its hardcover line, Berkley published a considerable number of paper first editions that stand as major classics and collectables. Cool Powers covers? Berkley had them, and most were of the more mature works Richard Powers was producing in the 1960's. Important writers and important works? How about the early J.G. Ballard, several Philip K. Dick titles, and books by Algis Budrys and Jack Vance? They're all there, and more. A discerning reader would not be without Avram Davidson's Or All the Seas With Oysters , or Charles Harness' The Rose . This is an important series that is sometimes ignored in the glare of the more famous lines, but one that cannot be ignored by the collector.
