A stainless steel rat for a stainless steel world... Meet Slippy Jim, aka The Stainless Steel Rat, aka James Bolivar DiGritz. A man of many names and many talents... all of which add up to make one of the greatest con men of all time. Charming, quick-witted, physically fit, a master of disguise, a skilled liar, an accomplished bank robber and exceptionally talented at breaking and entering, he's everything a master thief should be. He's also about to be caught, turned, and sent back out onto the streets as part of the Special Corps. But joining the Special Corps is only the beginning; there's a beautiful - beautifully villainous - woman in charge of her own battleship, an interstellar war, a guerrilla campaign and an evil plot by an ancient nation, known as the United States of America... It's up to the Stainless Steel Rat to save the world! Join the adventure in this omnibus edition of the first three Stainless Steel rat adventures: The Stainless Steel Rat, The Stainless Steel Rat's Revenge, and The Stainless Steel Rat Saves the World.
