Summary
Bron is the offspring of infamous space pirates but instead of following in the family footsteps he decides to become an electronic engineer. Unfortunately, every time he tries to get out, something pulls him back in. This is a tongue-in-cheek space adventure along the lines of the Stainless Steel Rat by Harry Harrison. It was originally published in the FEB-APR issues of Astounding Science Fiction in 1959. (Summary by Elliott Miller)

Clever tale. Well told. Carefully narrated, but missing on several consistent mispronunciations. Voices were well enough acted to partly make up for it. All in all, a reasonably engaging story, well presented.

An excellent book, by a master of golden age sci-fi, Murray Leinster. Charming and fun read when I read this many years ago. Just as charming and as much fun with an excellent reader.

Good book. Enough Sci-fi, piracy and even accidental insider trading , and it's funny. Sweet ending good narration with the different voices he did. I really liked it.

Elliot Miller is tops for narration! Does several different voices for different characters, makes the story more enjoyable and come alive :)

A wonderful, suspenseful yet easy listen. Great for a leisure read. Simple plot with complex small adventures. Read this while I did busy work. Makes time fly!
