I didn't change the words in any way that I recieved them. So I don't know how truthful it is, I'm just saying what I heard and I believe it, because I like to be simple.

Have you read his Time Enough For Love? It's his greatest book. Made an atheist of me at a young age, so maybe it is too dangerous for you.

I thought I had mentioned dad somewhere in there...

Anyway, nope havn't read that one yet thought the concept is really cool. I did read Tunnel in the Sky, Stranger in a Strange Land, and Starship Troopers.

One of the best atheistic sets of books are the Foundation series. Havn't read 'em all, but "Foundation" is very neat. Especialy all the pshycohistory - just like mentats from "Dune".

The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress (it won Hugo and Nebula awards, as I recall) is also a keeper, as is Glory Road. If you're into computers, TMISAM is definitely for you.

Don't read anything Heinlein wrote after 1973 unless you read TEFL first. Lazarus Long keeps popping up in his later books, and it gets mighty confusing if you haven't read TEFL first.

I am in the middle of Dune Messiah. For some reason I had never picked up the Dune series until now.

Dune -through- God Emperor are great, but after that it gets a little confusing because it just deals with the aftemath of Leto's rule. If you see any new ones by Brian Herbert & KJA that "continue" the series of the origional, I'd advise against reading them. They say Frank Herbert was on the verge of a final one better than all the others and he had tons of notes, but knowing KJA he'd screw it up.

A friend of mine loved the "House" prequels and insisted that I should read them first. Didn't do it.

I like Heinlein, too. I'd just gone through TEFL for the second or third time recently, since I couldn't find anything else that looked interesting on my shelves, and brought the subject of Heinlein up whilst talking to a friend of mine.

His take on the subject was the Heinlein's books were basically an outlet for his overwhelming desire to sleep with underage girls.

I thought it an interesting observation.

I think one of the interesting things about the book is that, having read it, you can pick it up and read any part you like. One day I just sat down and read the story of The Man Who Was Too Lazy To Fail, just because I felt like it.

My wife found me a hardcover copy of TEFL when we got engaged. And inscribed on the watch she gave me as a wedding gift is "TEFL." Which, when you think of it, is stunningly appropriate.
There are hints of that, to be sure, but the main thrust (ahem) seems to be his fixation with redheads.

It'd be funny to cut the words 'FUCK YOU COCKSMOKER' out of tinfoil and tape them to your chest before going through this thing.
