5.0
Truly tremendous work of science fiction. Anti authoritarian if you are like me, but potentially pro military if you have a different world view. No matter what you come into the book thinking Heinlein does a masterful job of conveying the thoughts and feelings of a young boy becoming a soldier. Perfectly executed in every way.
