From the Publisher:
In a galaxy where civilization covers every world with steel and ferroconcrete, only a very special man can break all the rules and still stay free. A man who moves through the rafters of society like a rat. A Stainless Steel Rat . . . . And when the galaxy goes to war, it needs special men. That's when The Stainless Steel Rat Gets Drafted. The 25th century's most dangerous outlaw is back--and this time it means war! Slippery Jim diGriz, better known as the Stainless Steel Rat, is seeking revenge for the murder of his mentor-in-crime, the fabled archcriminal known as The Bishop. His trail leads to Nevenkebla and the iron-fisted dictator General Zennor--the kind of man who'd sell his own mother into slavery just to see the expression on her face. Now in the uniform of a Nevenkeblan soldier, Jim discovers Zennor's vile plan to enslave a defenseless planet. Only a man with a Special code of honor--only a Stainless Steel Rat--can save the world from the invading horde.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Fine: Very small signs of wear. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Cover Art: Jim Burns (illustrator). 1st Edition. © 1987: 2nd in the 'Stainless Steel Rat' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Slippery Jimmy diGriz crashes out of prison and into a galactic war. Can a mere youth be expected to steal money, slug cops, fight swordsmen and rescue girls? Of course - if he is a Stainless Steel Rat in training. And this is just the beginning. For only a short smuggle across the bay is the invincible land of Nevenkebla. Run by the military, armed to the teeth, death on strangers. Should the Rat go there? He has no choice. Because the top dog in this baying army of killers is General Zennor. The fiend incarnate who caused the death of The Bishop, Jim's best, and only friend. But can he do it? Can he, alone and singlehandedly, pit himself against the most destructive army in the known universe? You bet he can - if he is the Stainless Steel Rat we know and love. Every Nevenkeblan youth is drafted into the army: there is no escape. The rockets blast into space as this heavily armed and unbeatably destructive force is launched against an unarmed and helpless planet. But it is also an army that has been penetrated by the Rat. They are all after him, but he is after them - and they are all after victory. The odds of success are three million soldiers to one Stainless Steel Rat. Good odds. For the Rat!:- Review(s): "The Rat can hold his head high amongst the most elevated superhero company - Bulldog Drummond, James Bond and Flash Gordon included" - Times Literary Supplement:- (original cost £9.95).
