It's really hard to believe this book got on the short list for nomination of the Retro Hugo awards (it lost). This is a great read if you are in the mood for total kitsch. Otherwise, skip. I couldn't write a pastiche of pulp stories from this era that's this absurd. The action moves along, making it a quick read, that's the positive I can say, if you can manage to grit your teeth through the naked women, blood covered women, blunt force fights, inexhaustible fighting abilities, and seemingly amazing linguistic abilities of the hero.
