Title: Incredibly Disappointing
Review: I rarely rate books here, but I have to leave my two cents on this one. Don't waste your time, this is a horrible book. For every good stretch that is interesting - which are few - there are long vast complicated stretches of either confusion or boredom.The complexity of the Motie species doesn't work well for the story. I love hard science fiction, but this is hard sci fi done wrong. Plus you have the stereotypical characters as many have mentioned. It is in many ways like reading a bad Star Trek episode.Worst is the self-approval stamp Heinlen put on this work. As one reviewer mentioned, he only allowed it if he could edit and fix the final manuscript himself, thus saying how great his own work is - shameless.When I finished this book, it went straight to the trash. For so much potential, it fails so miserably.
