I'm a 16 year old girl who's going into her senior year of highschool. My best friend recommended his book to me (Stranger in a Strange Land) and I'm loving it. Such amazing literature from such an amazing mind...
I doubt that I'd reached my teens yet, when I first discovered Heinlein--I still love his work at 61. I'd recommend "The Door Into Summer" "Methuselah’s Children" "Time Enough For Love" "To Sail Beyond The Sunset" and, of course, the cult favorite "Stranger in a Strange Land" as Heinlein must reads.
That was also the first one I read, and still my favorite. I also liked Stranger in a Strange Land The Moon is a Harsh Mistres, Double Star, Revolt in 2100, and The Door into Summer. I liked Methuselah's Children don't care for the later Lazaurus Long books like Time Enough for Love.
Rah was in the process of writing a future history of the the world. He forsaw the present day political problems and was a strong advocate of the libetarian style of freedom and thinking. I believe he would be a member of the Tea Party if alive today and would be appalled at the attacks and erosions of indiviual rights and freedom from the socialists/fasicts that are presently running the country and that in cludes noth parties. His best books were Starship Troopers and Farnhams Freehold.
I hope the Starship Troopers Remake resembles the book more and adds some tweaks much like the 1988 6-part anime did.

It's a damn shame that they turned Starship Troopers into garbage.
