Description
Winner of the 1967 Hugo award, this novel marked Heinlein's partial return to his best form. He draws many historical parallels with the War of Independence, and clearly shows his own libertarian political views.

Stranger in a Strange Land is the epic saga of an earthling, Valentine Michael Smith, born and educated on Mars, who arrives on our planet with “psi” powers—telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, telekinesis, teleportation, pyrolysis, and the ability to take control of the minds of others—and complete innocence regarding the mores of man. After his tutelage under a surrogate father figure, Valentine begins his transformation into a kind of messiah.

Anything can begin at a party in California - and everything does in this bold masterwork by a grand master of science fiction. When four supremely sensual and unspeakably cerebral humans - two male, two female - find themselves under attack from aliens who want their awesome quantum breakthrough, they take to the skies - and zoom into the cosmos on a rocket roller-coaster ride of adventure, danger, ecstasy, and peril.

Time Enough for Love is the capstone and crowning achievement of Heinlein's famous Future History series. Lazarus Long is so in love with life that he simply refuses to die. Born in the early 1900s, he lives through multiple centuries, his love for time ultimately causing him to become his own ancestor. Time Enough for Loveis his lovingly detailed account of his journey through a vast and magnificent timescape of centuries and worlds. Using the voice of Lazarus, Heinlein expounds his own philosophies, including his radical ideas on sexual freedom.

Robert A. Heinlein wrote The Number of the Beast, which was published in 1980. In the book Zeb, Deety, Hilda, and Jake are ambushed by the alien "Black Hats" and barely escape with their lives on a specially configured vehicle (the Gay Deceiver) which can travel along various planes of existence, allowing them to visit parallel universes. However, unknown to most fans, Heinlein had already written a "parallel" novel about the four characters and parallel universes in 1977.

Absolutely Fabulous!
I got my first Robert Heinlein book when I was a teenager and this particular novel has always been a huge favorite with me. I was delighted to find that the person doing the narrating was well chosen. His voice sounds EXACTLY like what you would expect Manny to sound like. This book is an utter joy!

Loved it
Read book from library many years ago, instantly loved it. Purchased paperback copy soon after and love it every time I read it. Purchased from audible and love it some more. Great, believable story, and having it read with a slight Russian accent makes it even better.

AI in its best
How do I write the review without revealing too much of a story? Well… Reading a book from 1966 year about the machine being able to demonstrate human qualities such as sense of humor, ability to empathize and take just the right side and me living in 2019 where AI is getting quite real feeling about it is surreal. Fifty years ago, RH was able to come up and deliver the story about the most eccentric way the machine and the human can co-operate delivering the revolution…

Interesting concepts
I read this book as I, like so many others have become frustrated with government control over our day to day lives. I liked hearing about how a society might be able to function without a ‘big brother’ over looking out every move.

heinlein'w best book and a classic of sci fi
science fiction, as separate from fantasy, should be a speculative story which explores some idea or technology. although many of Heinlein's books were bland vapid affairs more in the fantasy-in-space direction, this book explores a number of both.
you may like this book if you are interested in ideas around anarchy/libertarianism, anticolonialism, revolution including some ugly associated topics such as propaganda, and/or technological exploration around self sustaining communities, life on the moon, artificial intelligence, and linear accelerators for transport in space.
the story is about a moon colony used as a prison colony by all the various earth regimes because, after a time in the low gravity, the people sent there cannot physiologically return to the gravity of earth without extreme disability and risk of death. of course their innocent descendents can't either but that's ok they can just stay there growing grain to feed the masses back on earth. there is no real law on the moon but a society forms based mostly on individual accountability and risk of being thrown out a airlock to die if you offend your neighbors. eventually the moon people realize that as they keep sending grain to the earth but receive no water or nutrients back, they will eventually run out of the moons short supply and they will all die. so they find a way to rebell against the massively greater power of the earth.
there are many flaws with the "libertarian paradise" described in this book but to be fair, Heinlein does go out of his way to show some of the questionable ethical problems and behavior (for instance, the propaganda and constant threat of violence) of various characters. the society is not actually portrayed as an ideal but rather as a flawed attempt that has failed due to the moral or intellectual imperfections of humanity.

Strap on your #6 arm! It’s time to Free Luna!
This is my favourite Heinlein novel by far.
An excellent tale of revolution taking place on the moon in 2076.
The story, while being sci-fi, is detailed and believable.
The characters are wonderful, relatable, loveable and feel like real people.
This book is about as far from the pro-military propaganda that is starship troopers (do not misunderstand, I really love that book but I call it like it is).
As for performance, the main character has a Russian accent, but is very understandable. And felt natural after a chapter.
A++ will listen again.
