Great reading, Drake is a real master., 15 April 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Starliner (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved this book from front to back! The way Drake describes in detail the workings of the Starliner and its crew is fantastic. Every world that is visited is a new treat. Drake goes so far as to detailing the color that street lights burn and the different way the local gunpowder behaves.
Do yourself a favor and read this book!

Kill an alien, fu#* a blonde, 29 Dec 2003
By Lady Lorelei "tarotgoddess.net" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Starliner (Mass Market Paperback)
This book always brings a smile to my face. It's the first Drake book I ever read, after hearing Dave criticize Kuttner for writing "Kill an alien, fu#* a blonde" stories, because that's essentially what this is. It's also a sort of first foray into space opera predating Drake's Lt. Leary series by many years. A good romp through a great hotel on jets!

More like a screenplay, 29 Oct 2008
By Bob Fish - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Starliner (Mass Market Paperback)
If you have something else to read go ahead. The book has its good points but jumps from vignette to vignette without good flow. The hero is too moody, and his personality inconsistent.
