Your next favorite book
is waiting.
by Robert A. Heinlein, Spider Robinson
A never-before-published masterpiece from science fiction's greatest writer, rediscovered after more than half a century.
"Nostalgia for Heinlein's early work may pique interest in this posthumous collaboration, but old Heinlein hands may be disappointed that the book is incomplete, being all journey and no arrival." - PW.
"Authorized by Heinlein's estate to complete the story, award-winning author Robinson has captured the late Grand Master storyteller's essential spirit while adding his own unique brand of lyrical prose and warm humor. A mandatory purchase for all sf collections." - Library Journal.
