After a ten-year absence, the return of one of the most enduring series characters in modern SF James Bolivar «Slippery Jim» DiGriz, Special Corps agent, master con man, interstellar criminal (retired), is living high on the hog on the planet of Moolaplenty when a long-lost cousin and a shipful of swine arrive to drain his bank account and send him and his lovely wife, Angelina, wandering the stars on the wildest journey since «Gulliver's Travels.» In this darkly satiric work, Harry Harrison bring his most famous character out of retirement for a grand tour of the galaxy.

A gangster is murdered during a blistering Manhattan heat wave. City cop Andy Rusch is under pressure to solve the crime and captivated by the victim's beautiful girlfriend. But it is difficult to catch a killer, let alone get the girl, in crazy streets crammed full of people. The planet's population has exploded. The 35 million inhabitants of New York City run their TVs off pedal power, riot for water, loot and trample for lentil 'steaks' and are controlled by sinister barbed wire dropped from the sky. Written in 1966 and set in 1999, «Make Room! Make Room!» is a witty and unnerving story about stretching the earth's resources, and the human spirit, to breaking point.

Slippery Jim DiGriz is the Stainless Steel Rat: the galaxy's greatest interstellar thief and con artist. For novel upon novel, the Rat has outfoxed the forces of conventionality, cutting a stylish swathe through dozens of star systems-and stealing the hearts of thousands of readers. Now three of the Rat's greatest exploits are collected in a single volume. In «A Stainless Steel Rat Is Born», we see the origin and early days of Jim DiGriz's brilliant criminal career, as our underworld hero is forced to work for the Good Guys. Conscripted again in «The Stainless Steel Rat Gets Drafted», this time into a planetary army, the Rat must avenge the murder of his mentor-in-crime. And in «The Stainless Steel Rat Sings the Blues», Slippery Jim must retrieve a missing alien artifact, while disguised as a futuristic rock-and-roller...or forfeit his life.
