Retief Series Additional Stories
Requirements: ePUB reader, 1.7Mb
Overview: A Science Fiction Comedy series by Keith Laumer which details the adventures of Jame Retief of the Corps Diplomatique Terrestrienne. Retief must contend with and solve problems involving a wide variety of bizarre alien species, while outwitting the main rival of the Terrans, the five-eyed, vaguely insectoid Groaci—but his primary obstacle often seems to be the hidebound Vast Bureaucracy he works for. Retief is about the only person who ever gets anything useful done, and then usually only by bending and twisting the rules to their breaking point and beyond. His sidekick-like immediate superior, Ben Magnan, is the only one in the CDT who even seems to recognize Retief’s ability to get results.

Retief Unbound (Retief 01, 07) Omnibus
Retief Unbound, which was sold as "Retief 10," includes five of six stories from Retief 01 – Envoy to New Worlds: “Protocol”, “Sealed Orders”, “Aide Memoire”, “Policy”, and “Palace Revolution”; it did not include “Cultural Exchange”. It also included the entire short novel Retief 07 – Retief’s Ransom. “Cultural Exchange” has been restored to this edition so that it is actually a complete copy of Envoy to New Worlds, Retief Unbound, and Retief’s Ransom in one ebook.
Retief! (2001) SSC
Another inimitable Retief, with the dry wit and notoriously unlovely Groaci that we have come to know and love. Under Ambassador Pouncetrifle’s direction, the Furtheronians are presented with Yankee Stadium-type sports arenas, in hopes of sidetracking their aggressive behaviour, but, no good deed goes unpunished… the five-eyed Groaci retaliate by bestowing Bolshoi-type ballet theaters upon the unwitting natives…
