Product Description

Product Description

The message had seemed simple, yet it was more complex than Don could have imagined. He was being called from Earth to an alien world for reasons unknown -- save only that his life depended on it.

But setting out for Mars and getting there in good shape turned out to be a lot more complicated than Don ever would have guessed possible.

It was trouble enough being inexplicably hounded by Earth's secret police. But when he was hijacked by Venusian rebels, Don suddenly realized that he was trapped in the center of a war between worlds that could change the fate of the Solar System forever! --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.


From the Publisher

Like many people, I go way, way back with Heinlein. My very favorite book (and one that stands out in my mind--and with much affection--to this day) is Tunnel in the Sky. I really, really wanted to go off to explore new worlds with a covered wagon and horses, like the hero does at the very end of the book. But one of the nice things about Robert Heinlein is that he's got something for everyone. One of my best friends has a different favorite: Podkayne of Mars. Go figure.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Fantastic!, Déc 14 2007
Par Mark Nenadov "arm-chair reader" (Lasalle, Ontario Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Heinlein is a name to be reckoned with in Science Fiction. This was the first book of his which I read and I enjoyed it quite a bit. It is a quality adventure story and well-suited even for a SF neophyte such as I. Additionally, there are a lot of interesting themes here such as homesickness, authoritarianism, and alienation. Pick this as an introduction to Heinlein.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Required Heinlien reading, Sep 11 2001
Growing up, this was my fav Heinlien novel. His best works from the 60ws weren't kept in the library at my Catholic School, but as a pre-teen, this is one of the books that hooked me into Speculative Fiction for life.
You'll need to suspend any of the real science you've assimilated regarding Mars or Venus (especially!), but you'll be pleasently suprised if you're young (or young at heart).

4.0étoiles sur 5 Heinlein: The Early Years, Juil 29 2001
Par "sciolist" (CAMBRIA, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Revolution, aliens, young love; hot stuff to a teener. Uncle Bob at his political, inventive best (this tale includes the first literary description of "stealth" vehicles,,,decades prior to their actual construction in "our" world).

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not bad, not "must-read" either
I love Heinlein's fiction. He is the great author. But this book is not the one of his best ones. There is action, there is story, it's nice to read, and it's not bad if you... Read more

2.0étoiles sur 5 Aw, Shucks!
I give this book only 2 stars because, well, compared to great literature, 'Between Planets' is what it is; a 1950's pulp sci-fi novella. Read more
