  • The Rolling Stones (novel)
rdfs:comment
  • A well-loved YA novel written by Robert A. Heinlein and published in 1952, The Rolling Stones follows the adventures of the Stone family, primarily through the viewpoint of fifteen year old red-headed troublemakers Castor and Pollux. Together they finagle their father, beleaguered script writer Roger Stone, into purchasing a space ship for a family outing through the solar system. Hilarity Ensues. Like most Heinlein novels, it's very much hard science fiction: all of the math checks out. It takes place in the same universe as The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, which is a direct prequel.
