Book Overview

A monumental work -- acclaimed as agenuine masterpiece -- L. Ron Hubbard's 1.2-million-word-ten-volume MISSION EARTH dekalogy brilliantly blends science fiction and action/adventure on a vast interstellar scale with stinging satire -- in the literary tradition of Voltaire, Swift and Orwell -- on the world's foibles and fancies.A true publishing phenomenon -- precedent-setting when each volume, in turn, became a New York Times and then an international...

Brilliant

I am not a scientologist and I still think this series was great...despite what some reviewers would like you to believe. The story is told from the perspective of an alien. This makes his interpretations of observations from Earth (like Bugs Bunny the philosopher) hillarious. If you do not have the imagination to place yourself in the characters perspective, then you might not like the story...but if you have an ounce of reading skill, you will love this story.

The aliens are here!

With this book the series takes a wild and creepy turn. Book 4 in the Mission Earth Dekology 'An Alien Affair' places the narrator Soltan Gris in the clutches of a sadistic Miss Pinch who uses a jar of mustard in a way that will make your skin crawl! There is a lot of deadly racing at a Long Island speedway, and a really explosive battle on the observation platform of the Empire State Building. This book is completely different from the previous books, as it shows yet another satirical look at a sordid part of our society. You will appreciate this book as you read on in the series, as it really shows what kind of bumbling character the narrator is, despite his vicious mean streak. The mission continues...

Fantastic Story

I loved all of these stories. I could not stop once I started them. The pacing is great. The satire is great. Hubbard has a fantastic and witty sense of humor. These stories also really they get you thinking. Love them all.

Fantastic book, fantastic series

This book is absolutely brilliant, a really witty and satiric look at life etc. Inkswitch rocks!!!

non-stop excitement, fun - very hard to put down

After I read Vol 1 Mission Earth I was hooked. This series paints a picture you wish you could be a part of...to go into and DO SOMETHING about saving Earth. The author makes what you are reading seem so REALISTIC as though he knew ahead of time what would happen on earth.You have got to read this book. But I recommend you start with Volume 1 - it will give you a full meal...then on to the rest of the volumes all the way to the end. What a great read.
