The Stainless Steel Rat Reading Order

By Loki Comedy, Content, Espionage, Literature, Random, Science Fiction

If you have not yet read the adventures of Slippery Jim DiGriz, you’re in for a treat.

If you have, here’s how they all fit together:

A Stainless Steel Rat Is Born: Originally published in 1985.
The Stainless Steel Rat Gets Drafted: Originally published in 1987.
The Stainless Steel Rat Sings the Blues>: Originally published in 1994.
The Stainless Steel Rat: Originally published in 1961.
The Stainless Steel Rat’s Revenge: Originally published in 1970.
The Stainless Steel Rat Saves the World: Originally published in 1972.
The Fourth Law of Robotics: Originally published in 1989.
This story crosses over with The Asimov Universe Timeline. It is placed here because it clearly takes place much earlier than the main action of the series, making the time travel of the previous story the best fit for it.
The Stainless Steel Rat Wants You!: Originally published in 1978.
The Stainless Steel Rat for President: Originally published in 1982.
The Stainless Steel Rat Goes to Hell: Originally published in 1996.
The Stainless Steel Rat Joins The Circus: Originally published in 1999.
You Can Be The Stainless Steel Rat: Originally published in 1988.
Clearly occurs late in his career, but placed here by fiat.
The Stainless Steel Rat Returns: Originally published in 2010.
The Golden Years of the Stainless Steel Rat: Originally published in 1993.
