Jim is a great character (part cornball, part hero, part ego-maniac) who gets into the most ridiculous situations. At the very least read the first one. Even my sister who avoids sff really liked this series.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04260091806667958196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679457768571800783.post-34763559696248538912010-11-22T10:09:02.913+00:002010-11-22T10:09:02.913+00:00I actually read the 2000AD strip first then got th...I actually read the 2000AD strip first then got the books.

Good for a light, action packed, humorous read. I have heard the audiobooks are good, but haven't listened to one myself.joe57https://www.blogger.com/profile/10545121445236843685noreply@blogger.com
