The Skylark of Space by E.E. "Doc" Smith, E.E. "Doc" Smith

adventurous lighthearted medium-paced

1.5

i really hate rating books below a two but this author is long dead and gone (and apparently he believed in eugenics) so i don’t really care. this book was boring, pure wish fulfillment for the little chemistry boys of the 1920’s. i had to read this for class or else i would’ve dnf it on the first page purely for the writing style but it got worse the more i read. it truly is the perfect picture of a white mans world 100 years ago.
