I’m reading Time Enough For Love. Lazarus is getting back into his country doctor persona because Llita is pregnant.

I love to read this book every few years, I get something different from it each time.

I like to recommend Methuselah’s Children because it’s where we meet Lazarus Long. The beginning of the Future History, although Lazarus did meet Pinero.

What do you recommend and why?

This group is the official Heinlein Society space on Lemmy. Feel free to post and discuss RAH's life and works, and just about anything else related. I'm not trying to keep it too strictly on-topic, this space can be similar to The Heinlein Forum on Facebook or r/heinlein on Reddit (I'm moderator there, too). We can also post funny stuff like we do on The Heinlein Society's Facebook page.

The "no current politics" thing is because of our non-profit status, any questions can be directed to chairman@heinleinsociety.org.
