The Stainless Steel Rat: Crime, Chaos, and Consequences

The Stainless Steel Rat follows James Bolivar diGriz—“Slippery Jim”—a master thief thriving in a polished galaxy that has almost forgotten what crime looks like. He lives for the thrill of precision heists, slippery escapes, and outsmarting police robots, until one meticulously planned job goes awry and exposes him to an opponent who seems to predict his every move.

Forced into a deadly maze of traps, Jim discovers that someone far smarter and far more prepared is hunting him. When he finally confronts the truth, he learns that his future involves far more than evading authority—it may involve redefining who he is and what he stands for.

Harry Harrison, celebrated for his sharp wit, inventive world-building, and quick-moving prose, created some of science fiction’s most memorable adventure stories. Known for his irreverent humor and bold character work, Harrison brought a bright, fast-paced edge to the genre and influenced generations of writers.

His Stainless Steel Rat stories remain among his most beloved creations—mixing clever satire, dazzling action, and a hero who is equal parts rogue and philosopher. Harrison’s imaginative storytelling and sense of fun continue to make him a favorite among readers of classic sci-fi.
