Tom Swift
The Tom Swift series were among the most popular children's and young adult's sexy science fiction series. Four series featuring four and a half Toms confused many schoolchildren, foreigners, and parents who thought the newer books were crap. The series featured such brilliant/retarded titles as "Tom Swift and His Flying Lad", "Tom Swift and His Jetmagazine", "Tom Swift and His Rocket Chip", and "Tom Swift and His Electric Paranoia".

Take caution and carry a first-aid kit at all times if you don't know that Kadaj is Sephiroth, The Princess is in Another Castle®, everyone but Horatio dies, and Fortinbras takes over, the Skull Kid was possessed by the demon sealed within Majora's Mask, Lowrie fulfills the wish list, but dies, and Soylent Green is PEOPLE!!! |
Some loyal readers of the Tom Swift series believe they may have found an over all plot that spans all four series. They're not sure what it is, but some think that it's all going to lead to Tom's death. Whichever Tom it is. Interviews with Victor "Granny Smith" Appleton revealed nothing. Other, more sensible gumbies believe that the books are secret government plans to make walking to your mailbox unecessary. Instead, our chidren will be able to look farward to an age when sending mail is as easy as starting your Ultrasonic Pyscoplane!
