Have you read John Varley's The Golden Globe and Steel Beach? A lot of books are hyped as being Heinleinesque, but I've never seen any that evoke RAH as much as Varley's. Totally different from his early Titan books, and similar in feel to The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress.

Steel Beach REALLY rings the Heinlein bell.

I really enjoyed that one and would like to see more like it from Varley.

Regards,
