Book Log

20. Time for the Stars - Robert A. Heinlein [23 : 831/1534]
One of the many Heinlein books I've got waiting for me... The story of identical twins who can communicate telepathically over any distance. One stays on Earth, while the other joins the crew of a near light speed ship to seek out new planets to colonize. It was an ok read, not great, but not bad. Parts of it really showed it's age (written in the 1950s).

Some of it doesn't age well, but then there are his better books. I re-read Time Enough for Love every other year or so. Then there's stuff like The Number of the Beast which was utter crap. He was prolific, but definitely inconsistent in terms of quality.
