5.0 out of 5 stars
My all-time favorite,
By Angela (Albuquerque, New Mexico) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Galactic Bounty (Paperback)
I first read this book thirteen years ago when it was originally published as "War World" and while I was still in grade school. I read it from cover to cover in one day (even using a flashlight hidden under a pillow to continue after bedtime). There has been no single author that has captured my imagination and paralyzed me with excitement as William C. Dietz. I highly recommend any of his novels, but this one holds a very dear place in my heart. I am so thankful to Ace Books for republishing this book and supporting such a magnificently gifted writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Hard-boiled space opera at its best,
By
This review is from: Galactic Bounty (Paperback)
The McCade series of 1. "Galactic Bounty" (earlier published as "War world"), 2. "Imperial bounty", 3. Alien bounty", and 4. "McCade's bounty"; presents a completely new kind of science fiction character in Sam McCade. McCade is the bounty hunter within the terran empire that finds himself in the center of intergalactic politics and conflicts where his past military career in the terran fleet catches up with him. Hard-boiled and impossible to corrupt; McCade is facing adventures, together with his two odd friends Rico and Phil, that could be described as a unique mix of a wild west novel set in a military science fiction world with a flavor of Jack Vance and Robert Henlein. You will not be disappointed. Try also his other novels in the "legion" series.

Large Reward for GALACTIC BOUNTY,
By J McCree (Denver, Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Galactic Bounty (Paperback)
I have scoured many bookshelves and read much pulp, But I found a true treasure with this little gem. Dietz has created a larger than life life story that reads exceptionally well. It is very apparent that Dietz values the reader, and doesn't subject them to bunk. Pure Joy.
