... Bloody hell.

Oh I guessed. "Good god, man." Just comes from Dr McCoy from Star Trek. It's a thing I say.

Me too but then I've always been fond of science fiction stories with a good sense of humor in them.
Reteif, Earthman's Burden, The Witches of Karres.
That's one reason I like the Dresden Files - JB has a great sense of humor.

Same here, really. It was one of the things that got me to buy Storm Front.

I'll look up those books though. Always up for more to read.

I think Keith Laumer did the Reteif series.  Though not funny his BOLO series also known as the Dynachrome Brigade is very good.  About giant tanks with AI.

Poul Anderson and Gordon Dickson did - "Earthman's Burden" about the Hoka's aka The Demon Teddybears.
You'll laugh yourself silly.  They aren't really demons they're just very, very, very, very, very enthusiastic about things.  Think a whole planet of Cosplayers who get everybody involved in their reality.

James Schmitz did The Witches of Karres.  One of the few men (JB does it too) who could write good female characters.

Demon Teddy Bears? Oh lords... XD That sounds hilarious!

Oh yes! I love writers that can write good female characters! Definitely going onto the list!

Yeah the poor human who has to deal with the Hoka's finds, after 20 years since the first contact with humans that the Hokas have all taken to the Western way of life.  (The Captain of the Scout ship loved westerns and made the big mistake of showing his old movies to the Hokas.)
We're talking Cowboys, Gamblers, Dance hall girls (with four breasts no less).  Indians (Greenskins -they're reptilian in nature.)
As he comments - "he reflected on the horror of a squeaky drawl."  Hokas are only about 4 feet tall or so.
You've got the Lone Rider, the Loneliest Rider, the Really Lone Rider.  You get the idea.  ROTFLMAO
