I was at the used book store recently and saw a number of his books in the sci-fi section. They had a lot of Battlefield Earth copies which I saw at the dollar theater when I was in the Air Force and felt a dollar was too much, but to be fair a book shouldn’t be judged on it’s adaptation (Wheel of Time for instance). It’s just that with his books I can’t get past the whole Scientology things.
Just out of pure curiosity I do want to read Dianetics one day because that commercial was on a lot when I was a little kid. I want to see what all the fuss was about.
I read the whole Mission Earth series and it was honestly entertaining with some fun worldbuilding.
Super degenerate sex and gory violence but also so over the top that it seems like the text version of grindhouse-style cinema.
The cultural satire is decently funny though.
Overall I would say there is better stuff to read but if you have it lying around and don't have anything better it is enjoyable enough.
Thanks! I think I have heard of Mission Earth
I read one of them as a kid. I wasn't impressed
