NORBY THE ROBOT IS BACK! ON A TIME-SPACE SAFARI THAT’S OUT OF THIS WORLD…

Whenever Admiral Yobo summoned Jeff and Norby, it usually meant they were in trouble. This time, the Martian officer has a mission for them: a wild-safari photo shoot…in Earth’s distant past.

Thanks to Norby’s hyperspace skills, the journey is a success. But it’s a jungle out there—the elephants are stampeding, the natives are restless…and Norby’s lost the trail that can take them back home!

I really cannot find it in me to comment on yet another Norby book. I do not like them, Sam-I-am.

This one is actually slightly longer than the ones that proceeded it and yet not terribly memorable. The plot involves efforts on the part of Admiral Yobo to encounter a part of his family past. As with other Norby books, one’s own mileage may vary—but I, for one, do not consider it one of the high points in my Asimov reading.
