Between Planets / Robert A. Heinlein

Between Planets

(category: science fiction)
by

Robert A. Heinlein

published by Robert Hale in 1951
Nick read a library book, in December 2009

Nick's rating: 6 out of 10


Nick's opinion:

Scientists are good guys, politicians are baddies... a simple message from a simple book. An old-style SF novel, with a young hero, an aged scientist (or in this case, senior member of the resistance), the scientist's beautiful daughter, a few aliens -- seemingly powerful but second fiddle to the heroic humans -- and the scientific breakthrough which will save the world. Not so much an adventure, as a series of pointed (though very blunt) comments on society. An easy read.
