Title: Boring.
Product review: I think The Number of the Beast is boring, confusing and the worst novel I have ever read from Heinlein. The characters talk, and talk, and talk, and talk ALL the time and nothing really happens. Also there are a lot of references to other novels from Heinlein so if you haven't read them before you are absolutely lost. Also there are jokes that I thought, have been very funny for Heinlein himself and his friends, but only for them. There is also some like a "revolutionary" concept of sexual liberty like in Stranger in a Strange Land, but only a shadow of that, something really absurd because it seem to be written on pourpose to be "revolutionary" and failing in the attempt. I have to make a effort to finish it, and also I got lost at the end. As a final remark also the "science" on the storty are not speculative (as its supposed to be in sci-fi) but absurd.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
