As one bibliographer writes: ''Movie producers get hold of a time machine, and decide to shoot a Viking epic on location - in the 11th century AD. A thoroughly madcap romp in its author's best vein''. Crikey! Found it through my usual pulp books supplier. But I'd need to read it in ebook. And it is on the Kindle for £3.99 from the Gateway Essential srange. Buying! #Books #Scifi #Bookstodon #TimeTravel

Dated, yes; certainly inasmuch as it's missing all of the trappings of even _my_ childhood. On the other hand, the social attitudes of the characters are not nearly as problematic in retrospect.
Did you try them on something like _The Stainless Steel Rat_?

A really interesting production would cast Jessi as The Stainless Steel Rat.
