I enjoyed the Tom Swift Jr books that I read around 1970. They were the books that got me interested in science fiction, science, and technology. Many years later when I was buying presents for nieces and nephews, the Tom Swift III series, is the only Tom Swift books that I could find in bookstores. As it turns out I didn't get around to giving them all away. Recently I read these books before getting rid of them. I found the writing to be terrible and the plots to be very simple. Maybe the ones I read in 1970 were just as bad, but they were amazing for me to read around age 12 as an introduction to science fiction.
