An parallel telling of part of Time Enough for Love. This should definitely be read after TEFL, but not immediately after, as To Sail Beyond the Sunset doesn't fill those shoes. But it's a decent book in its own right - and its title is second to none. ( )

One of his last & about the worst book Heinlein ever wrote, in my opinion. It's long, wordy & without much to recommend it. There is some action in it, but it's buried in windy passages. Not worth a re-read & I only got through it because I'm such a fan of his other works. ( )

One of my favorite books by one of my favorite authors. Follows the life of Mama Maureen from prepubescence to old age and into the future.

Contains character list and list of related stories at end. ( )

Epigraph
Come, my friends,
'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
the sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
of all the western stars, until I die.

Tennyson, "Ulysses"
Dedication
To little girls and butterflies and kittens. To Susan and Eleanor and Chris and (always) to Ginny.
With my love,
R.A.H.
First words
I woke up in bed with a man and a cat.
