There are three anthologies of Heinlein shorts: The Green Hills of Earth, The Man Who Sold the Moon, and The Menace From Earth. Each has some really excellent stories, and some less excellent.

Other than the shorts, I like the juveniles, Starship Troopers, Puppet Masters, and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. I dislike the other later stuff.

Thanks! I just checked and it looks like I can get all those through interlibrary loan--yay! :)

I like Starship Troopers and Puppet Masters a lot. I'm just starting to get into the juveniles--have Podkayne of Mars checked out but haven't had a chance to read it yet. I own a copy of Moon is a Harsh Mistress so I can read that when I get that far in Heinlein's corpus.

Get any writing done today?
