I’ve read a couple of Heinlein’s books that I loved, so I had very high expectations for this book, which is probably why I only gave it a 3 star. I liked it, don’t get me wrong, but it just didn’t have quite the same effect as the others…
The first half of the book focuses mainly on Matt and his friends’ training and education, which I found sadly lacking. I love the in-depth studies of special training schools, and Space Cadet just skimmed over it. The second half of the book, however, was much better. It added more adventure and excitement to the story.
I really did like this book, it just wasn’t quite as thought-provoking and action-packed as the others. It was a nice fun read, for when you’re bored and don’t want a book that makes you think too much. The last 3 chapters were probably my favorites, exciting, suspenseful, and fascinating!
I'm 15, and I recommend this book.
