It comprises eleven of the fourteen stories in Bond's "Lancelot Biggs" series. Sometimes described as a novel, it presents the stories in a sequence of twenty-seven numbered chapters. The collection was reissued in trade paperback by Wildside Press many years later; no mass market paperback edition was issued. Contents, in order of their appearance in the collection
Not included in the book were:
The eleven Lancelot Biggs stories included were revised for this volume to provide continuity from one episode to the next.[1] The Index to Science Fiction Anthologies and Collections incorrectly lists "The Scientific Pioneer Returns" as one of the volume's included stories. ReceptionTime magazine received the book rather skeptically; its reviewer commented that "Author Nelson Bond, who used to write westerns, has merely put a Space Age icing on the old Wild West conventions" and that "to those who have never exposed themselves to the comic strips, the pseudo-scientific gobbledygook that spews forth from every page of Lancelot Biggs: Spaceman may cause some confusion for a while [although] [t]he persistent will get the hang of it."[2] P. Schuyler Miller gave the collection a somewhat mixed review, saying that "Bond lacks few of the tricks of the born storyteller, and uses them all blandly and shamelessly."[3]References1. ^Index to Science Fiction Anthologies and Collections {{DEFAULTSORT:Remarkable Exploits of Lancelot Biggs}}2. ^"Books: Space Ahoy!", Time, August 14, 1950 3. ^"Book Reviews", Astounding Science Fiction.
