Time Enough For Love was awesome. To Sail Beyond The Sunset was really, reeeeally weird, but I liked it. Heinlein is one of the few authors that can weave an obscene amount of sex into a good story. And the only author I’ve ever read that does it as often, as he does it well.
Fear Itself by Michael Reaves and Steven-Elliot Altman when I came across a passage where Bruce was attending his own Masquerade Party as Zorro. He then went on to describe how the Zorro costume made him want to swagger. I got a pretty good laugh out of it, and thought I’d share it.
Five minutes later Bruce started for the entrance hall. He was resisting the urge to swagger; there was something about the Zorro costume that was swagger-inducing. Odd, really. It was just a mask and a cape, after all; not so different from the cowl and cloak he wore nearly every night. And yet his “work clothes” inspired no desire to swagger.
Must be the sleeves, he thought.
