The Stainless Steel Rat Sings the Blues (Stainless Steel Rat, #3)The Stainless Steel Rat Sings the Blues by Harry Harrison
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Alas, this Stainless Steel Rat, following up the early adventures of Jimmy, didn't hold up quite as well on the re-read. I docked it a star for being slightly incomprehensible in a later part.

Mostly it was fun, but it got a bit too wacky in its commentary.

Not horribly, but it wasn't all that enjoyable, either.

Even so, being a blues singer was funnily weird for a master thief. That was fine and fun. Quite Suicide Squad-ish meets Blues Brothers.
