awesome





Jmorri2011
awesome book and great narration, I just wish that there were more books by this author there are well over 100 books between Victor Appleton and Victor Appleton II (Victor Appleton II however is actually various different authors) Here's the wiki link to the Tom Swift Jr page: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Swift,_Jr. The link to the main wiki entry for all of Tom Swift: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Swift Lastly the link to all of the Tom Swift books written including both public domain and non PD books: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Swift (yes this review is from my phone and the link's are .m. for ease the of those on tablets and phone's) Better than half of the series aren't in the public domain. However books #1-#25, and #39 of the original series are in PD, and a few others of the "Tom Swift Jr." series are also works in the PD

how much more Andy Foger do we have to deal with? The entire series could be negated with a good fence and dog.
Did you know...?





Steven Rodgers
if I remember correctly I heard this in an interview with the inventor; the only reason the word "taser" has an A in it is so it rhymes with - and makes us think of - the phaser from Star Trek. The original name was an acronym: TSER standing for Tom Swift's Electric Rifle.
Fun and goofy





Wistful of Dollars
Hearkens to those youthful days of unlimited possibility. Read in part by David Lynch...

JACOB!
This book was pritty pretty
Expresses ideas that are contrary to DEI





Bill Cosby
First, it portrays a white person as being capeable of inventing machines to help humanity. If there is anything the early 21 st century has taught us, it is that white people are incapable of inventing anything. Instead the whites steal all their ideas from smarter BIPOcs. If they were to invent something it would be used to enslave humxns. Secondly it is written from an inherently phalogocentric cis gendered white perspective that enslaves BIPOCs. Lastly, trans voices were not included in this discourse. Therefore it needs to be banned along with the works of Dr Suess, Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass all of whom expressed contemptuous ideas now known to be anti-progressive
