I never quite finished Sunset, though it sat on my shelves for years. (This was in the days before the Internet and nudity was harder to come by). I first “discovered” Heinlein in high school when I attempted to read To Sail Beyond the Sunset simply because the cover featured a naked woman with her long, flowing red hair strategically covering up the “naughty” bits. And so, I picked this one…and I’m not sure it really worked out all that well.Ī decade or so ago, I participated in a local real-world sci-fi and fantasy book discussion group and each January, we’d kick-off the new year by reading an offering from Robert K. So, this year as January approached, I decided that one of the books I’d read Vintage SF Month would be a new (to me) novel by Heinlein. I attended a local book club devoted to sci-fi and fantasy and one of the founders insisted that we kick off the new year with a work from Robert A. In a way, I was participating in Vintage SF Month before it became an Internet sensation a couple of years ago.
