All in all, the Pip and Flinx series has been an enjoyable journey. Sometimes there is more fantasy in science fiction than there is in fantasy itself. I guess that is part of the charm of the series. We are in the science fiction world with loads of drama and very little realism. He has had many adventures travelling around the galaxy trying to figure out who and what he is. The series begins with Flinx as a child on the Planet Moth and ends with Flinx as an adult on the planet Cachalot. He is, however, a good person – for a given definition of good. I guess you could say that the Pip and Flinx series is fairly wholesome. They are quite innocent and free of explicit sex and violence. Alan Dean Foster has written a typically young adult series. The Pip and Flinx series has spanned 35 years which is quite a long time to follow a series.
