Reading List

[mr_nice!]

Hi Everybody

I have just purchased the following Heinlein books and wondered what order I should read them in and if there any gaps in between need filling

1. To Sail Beyond The Sunset
2. Time Enough for Love
3. The Number of the Beast
4. The Moon is a Harsh Mistress
5. Methuselah's Children
6. The Rolling Stones
7. The Cat Who Walks Through Walls

Would appreciate your thoughts on the order of reading and if I should purchase any others (obviously I have Stranger)

Nice

As these are closely related (either part or his Future History series, or closely allied to it), even though you'll be jumping back and forth as far as his career and writing is concerned (at least with the first few), I'd suggest the following:

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress
The Rolling Stones
Methuselah's Children
Time Enough for Love
The Number of the Beast
The Cat Who Walks Through Walls
To Sail Beyond the Sunset
