The wickedest, most wonderful science fiction story ever created in our - or any - time. Anything can begin at a party in California - and everything does in this bold masterwork by a grand master of science fiction. When four supremely sensual and unspeakably cerebral humans - two male, two female - find themselves under attack from aliens who want their awesome quantum breakthrough, they take to the skies - and zoom into the cosmos on a rocket roller-coaster ride of adventure, danger, ecstasy, and peril.

Robert A. Heinlein wrote The Number of the Beast, which was published in 1980. In the book Zeb, Deety, Hilda, and Jake are ambushed by the alien "Black Hats" and barely escape with their lives on a specially configured vehicle (the Gay Deceiver) which can travel along various planes of existence, allowing them to visit parallel universes. However, unknown to most fans, Heinlein had already written a "parallel" novel about the four characters and parallel universes in 1977.

Travel to other planets is now a reality, and with overpopulation stretching the resources of Earth, the necessity of finding habitable worlds is growing ever more urgent. There’s a problem though—because the spaceships are slower than light, any communication between the exploring ships and Earth would take years.
Tom and Pat are identical twin teenagers. As twins they’ve always been close, so close that it seemed like they could read each other’s minds.

After the fall of the American Ayatollahs as foretold in Stranger in a Strange Land and chronicled in Revolt in 2100, the United States of America at last fulfills the promise inherent in its first Revolution: for the first time in human history there is a nation with Liberty and Justice for All. No one may seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

One of Heinlein's best-loved works, The Rolling Stones follows the rollicking adventures of the Stone family as they tour the solar system. It doesn't seem likely for twins to have the same middle name. Even so, it's clear that Castor and Pollux Stone both have "Trouble" written in that spot on their birth certificates. Of course, anyone who's met their grandmother Hazel would know they came by it honestly.

The totalitarian East has triumphed in a massive invasion, and the United States has fallen to a dictatorial superpower bent on total domination. That power is consolidating its grip through concentration camps, police state tactics, and a total monopoly upon the very thoughts of the conquered populace. A tiny enclave of scientists and soldiers survives, unbeknownst to America’s new rulers. It’s six against six million - but those six happen to include a scientific genius, a master of subterfuge and disguise who learned his trade as a lawyer-turned-hobo, and a tough-minded commander....

Story
After the fall of the American Ayatollahs as foretold in Stranger in a Strange Land and chronicled in Revolt in 2100, the United States of America at last fulfills the promise inherent in its first Revolution: for the first time in human history there is a nation with Liberty and Justice for All. No one may seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

Great story but...
Claims to be unabridged. Is both abridged and censored. Good narrator, but I just can't get past the censorship and the "unabridged" lie. Try to be a little more honest next time Audible. had I known, I wouldn't have wasted my money and stuck with the George Guidell version. Gives me doubts as to how censored the rest of my library is.

A Science Fiction Classic!
If you could sum up The Man Who Sold the Moon in three words, what would they be?
Heinlein's Future History...
What did you like best about this story?
These stories have "aged" surprisingly well. I find myself just as excited by the audiobook version as I was on my first reading of the book, now many years ago.
What does Buck Schirner bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The voicing made the book stand out as even more memorable than my first experience reading it.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
"Requiem" very nearly brought me to tears.
Any additional comments?
Rated PG 13 for mild profanity. (Single instance.)

Superb performance!
Buck Schirner perfectly captures the 1950s speech patterns of the characters. They sound just like I imagined they would when I first read this book.

Love Heinlein, but..
The reader wasn't good. He tried to use the rough Bogart voice, which came across as crude rather than tough.

The Man Who Sold The Moon
"The Man Who ..." may be RAH's most intriguing short story before he fell into the novella and adult length genres. Incredible attention to details and twists and turns. Joe 2015

always a great story
RAH is awesome. there's not a thing I can say that wouldn't have already been said about how great the writer he was.
But what in the heck is with this covet picture? The original cover is perfect ....this looks like it's some kind of Horror portrayal... And it is definitely it's horrible.

Best place to start Heinlein books
This collection of short stories is the best place to start reading Heinlein’s world of books. It will set the stage for the future that includes Lazarus Long who is the uniting character in this world of stories.
Highly recommend this series to anyone who is interested in science fiction.

The most memorable part is the title.
It was better when I read it 50 years ago. It was better 30 years ago.

Hey it's Heinlien
Old school sci fi but worth the listen. But definitely dated now. The performance was very good.
