Golden Age

 

 

Robert A. Heinlein

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress Not in any particular order, these are my favorite RAH Novels.  Some are out of print [Like Podkayne of Mars] and available through used book sellers.   
   I can't decide whether it is just nostalgia or what, but they are good reads. What fun it is to re-read these books after so many years.
  I think that some of them create a vision of the future where such things as interplanetary travel and colonization are possible, and where adventures are just around the corner!
  Freehold on the other hand, was written during the cold war and can be viewed as a bit of a "rant" against the times.  Still, an enjoyable read once you get past the stereotypes.

Ingathering: The complete People Stories of Zenna Henderson

There was something magical about her stories of "The People".  For years I had the paperback anthologies, but lost them between moves.   Now I was able to find a hardcopy of Ingathering!  Wonderful to have the complete set of stories in one volume!  Quick reads, you're in for a treat if you get your hands on any of them!  Maybe you'll see some in a used book store or garage sales. but Ingathering is in print.
