4.0 out of 5 stars Story of Flinx, October 3, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Flinx of the Commonwealth (Paperback)

This book, basically, is the early childhood of Flinx. This is where he grows up, raised by a woman in a shop, who recognizes his talents and has him use them to attract customers. He finds pip, and eventually heads off to find the truth about himself. i believe it's the first in the flinx series but, unfortunately, it's out of print so it's a bit difficult to find. very much worth the time, if you can find a copy.

This review is from: Flinx of the Commonwealth (Paperback)

Having read all the others in the series - and others associated to it in the Humanx universe - I too need to know if this is a new title, following on from Mid-Flinx. It's about time the threads started pulling together - Flinx and his associates, the metamorph from the 'city of the dead' and the guys from 'the howling stones' - and where the hell's Skua got to lately?
