books, one or two of which had SFNal elements in them.  (The
Mad Scientist (TM) with the freeze ray, for instance.)

Several Tom Swift Jr. novels.  One "Rick Brant", which I
thought was kind of "meh", and never looked for any more.
The "Mike Mars" books.  What little was in the junior high
library, which did include Heinlein's "Have Spacesuit,
Will Travel."  Some Ace Doubles, one of which included "Dome
Around America" and "The Paradox Men".

Don't know which RB you read, but in general they were awesome,
and better written than the TS & HB books (which I also loved).

Somehow I never tried Mike Mars.
