Synopsis: "Though it is clearly fantasy in its cast of fairies and the like, the Jimmieboy sequence [... list of four books] focuses on fantasticated Inventions and upon Jimmieboy's interest in how these things work, so that the series – which includes a dream trip to Saturn (see Outer Planets) – constantly resembles sf without being quite answerable, rather in the fashion of L Frank Baum, who may have been influenced by early Bangs." -- SFE3: "Bangs, John Kendrick"
