Vonnegut, Heinlein, whoever wrote "Cities in Flight", but that was about it.<br/><br/>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. <br/><br/>I still want one of those robots to wash dishes for me.<br/><br/>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.<br/><br/>Of his more science oriented stuff, I really like Starman Jones. Door Into Summer is great!
