Bertram Chandler and the John Grimes series:<BR></B>“SF’s answer to Horatio Hornblower.” —<i>Publishers Weekly<BR><BR></i>“As Asimov chronicled the Foundation, as Heinlein built his Future History, so Chandler constructs the epic of the Rim Worlds.” —<i>Analog<BR><BR></i>“[Grimes] establishes a loyalty in his readers rather similar to that felt by readers of Hornblower. Indeed [Chandler’s] space operas are among the most likeable and well constructed in the genre. . . .” —<i>The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction<BR></i>
