"Fantastic Sci-Fi Novel"
I thought this book was extremely well done. I enjoy Flinx's personality. Although he does have a special "talent", it is his intelligence that gets him through most of the adventures in this book and I love a protagonist with a brain. :)

"A good start to the series"
Alan Dean Foster's style has always been to start a story with an interesting yet plausible premise then direct it to an ever and ever outrageous conclusion. The funny thing is, as you get sucked into the story you never quite see how outrageous it has become. This was not the first book he wrote in this series, but it is the start of the story line. Therefor Foster had to fit the story within pre-existing story restrictions. It was well done and tidy, not needing to have read other stories to understand this one, and not feeling like there was no ending.

"A flying, acid-spitting SNAKE??"
Actually, I think this is probably a "young adults" book. Who cares? Foster is a first-rate wordsmith, crafting a solid storyline and moving it right along. The characters are nice to know (for some) or great to hate (for others), but constantly credible... including Flinx the flying, acid-spitting snake. Yes.
This is not great literature, but a pleasant pass-time. As such, recommended.1 of 2 people found this review helpful -
"easy book to listen to"
Is there anything you would change about this book?the story line was slow to develop and the ending seemed to hurry to a conclusion
Would you recommend For Love of Mother-Not to your friends? Why or why not?probably it sets the stage for other flinx adventure in the series.
What about Stefan Rudnicki’s performance did you like?yes
If this book were a movie would you go see it?not real sure
Any additional comments?no
