BILL, THE GALACTIC HERO by Harry Harrison

BILL, THE GALACTIC HERO

By

Publisher: Doubleday

Bill is an ex-farm boy who becomes the Huckleberry Finn of the Galactic Space Service. Under the less than genial auspices of Sergeant Deathwish Dang, he is molded into the proper soldier destined to risk life and limb in the battle against ""the institute of theyness."" But Bill finds ""they"" as represented by the 6-inch intelligent reptile species- ""Chingers"" an unworthy enemy compared to the ""they"" of red tape bureaucracy. Grounded satire.
