The Schimmelhorn File: Memoirs of a Dirty Old Genius

Papa Schimmelhorn #1

by Reginald Bretnor

He has the mind of a child, the sexual proclivities of a teenager—and the subconscious of a scientific genius. And despite the best efforts of Mama Schimmelhorn to get her old man to make Swiss cuckoo clocks by day and stay home by night, Papa's inventions will keep coming.

And so do his adventures, as he manages to take time off from his busy schedule of chasing der pretty pussycats to...

...take a little trip to save the Western World from invading Mongol Hordes on 'Count von Schimmelhorn's Time-Pony'...

...engage in Encounters of a very Close Kind with 'The Ladies Of Beetlegoose Nine'...

...invent an x-rated cuckoo clock (and immortality) in 'The S.O.D.O.M. Serum'...

And who else but Papa could find a way to make the world safe for Democracy when 'The Gnurrs Come From The Voodvork Out'...?

[Stephen Rowland · Rating 2 out of 5]

Silly and sexist. I did manage to finish it, though, so that means something.
