(I like Asimov)
He is a good writer.
Foundation. He’s more famous for his robot stories, but I absolutely love Foundation.
I, Robot and Foundation are both amazing. I haven’t read much Heinlein, which might make me a plebian.
I’ve read The Forever War which was quite interesting. As far as Starship Troopers... well, I saw the 80s movie adaptation of it, and that’s forever tainted my view of the book.
Wasn’t the movie made in the ’90s? Or is there an earlier adaptation that I haven’t heard about (like the unreleased 1993 Fantastic Four movie)?
It looked pretty 80s when I watched it.
No gratuitous CGI?
I guess in the 90s they thought the future looked like the 80s, so they gave everyone an 80s fashion sense?
XD Probably.
In that case I’ll just try and purge all memories of the movie and read the book then.
The movie had nothing to do with the book, which I thought was an insightful commentary on how to maintain a democracy in which voting is a privilege and not a right. And Heinlein has written a metric ton more than just Starship Troopers. One of his most famous is Stranger in a Strange Land which I thought was brilliant. But my personal favorite, for philosophy as well as storyline, was The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.
Tunnel in the Sky, by Heinlein.
Also The Rolling Stones.
Though I haven’t read Very many of his books.
