Vonnegut, Heinlein, whoever wrote “Cities in Flight”, but that was about it.I’d rather SEE space operas than read them. I like seeing where the money went!

One of the best “time travel” books out there. I still want one of those robots to wash dishes for me.My favorite Heinlein is almost impossible to pin down since it depends so much on my mood. I love Job, but that kinda stands off by itself. Of his juvenile fiction, I think Podkayne of Mars is great as well as Tunnel in the Sky.Of his more science oriented stuff, I really like Starman Jones.

(My favorite Heinlein is Door Into Summer. It’s the one I recommend to anyone who’s never tried him on before.)
