This is a virtuoso science fiction futuristic re-telling of the American Revolution. I liked the setting, the use of libertarian principles and of course the brilliant work of the Grandmaster himself. And just as The Fountainhead is the better, though less epic, of the pair with Atlas Shrugged, so is Moon is a Harsh Mistress, the more focused and simple of the two, better than Stranger in a Strange Land. Heinlein vehicle for theology, so is Moon is a Harsh Mistress to ideology. As Stranger in a Strange Land was a Robert A. When I first read this years ago I loved it, I could not put it down. My three favorite books of all time are (in no order) Heart of Darkness, The Dispossessed, and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. TANSTAAFL = There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.
