Except that Skylark Three is more thrilling, more exciting and even more chockfull of science than the other."

3.0 out of 5 stars Bearable pulp, more quaint than fun., May 23 2003
By Graeme Buckley (Wellington New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Skylark Three (Paperback)
This was the second book in E.E.Smith's first series, and it's pure thirties pulp, quite good of it's period, but then the period happily tolerated segregation. Smith hit his stride with this one, it is Space Opera with all the stops out on the organ. New ships are invented one week, in mass production by the end of the month, and obsolete within six months, the weapons so irresistible that battle seem to be a clash of heavily armed eggshells. Geocide is a casual tactic. Every thing is so black-and-white in Smith's writing, the humans are boy scouts in space, and most of the rest seem to be slaverin' B.E.M's after aw wimminfolks.
Frankly, skip this one and try Skylark DeQuesne, written about 30 years after the rest, when Smith had calmed down a bit, and his palatte had a few more colours other than black,white . . . oh and purple
