- <font size=5>T</font>o sample
- written Space Opera at its gung-ho best, we have to turn to the
- otherwise obscure E. E. 'Doc' Smith.
- <font size=5>H</font>is Lensman series is gorgeous.
- <font size=5>I</font>t spans a huge period of time, has big beefy
- heroes, strange looking aliens,
- wonderful technology and all the blasters and force fields
- you can cope with. Smith wrote plenty more, but none

- as the Lensman books.
