Book Reviews of I Will Fear No Evil

Book Review: My first Heinlein book
Summary: 5 Stars

This book was given to me by a friend when I was 15 years old. It was my first true "sci-fi" book, and I am very fond if this novel as it opened my eyes to a whole new genre of novels (I discoverd Asimov shortly after) and stories. From the very beginning of the book I was hooked, and found it absolutely amazing. From the moment that I finished it I endevoured to get hold of a copy of every RAH book available. I am very surprised at some of negative feedback that this book has had, as I found it extremely thought provoking. I was so incredibly dissapointed when, on a bright Saturday morning, I turned the final page and had got to the end of the book that I sat in my room stunned, not knowing what to do with the rest of the day. I can still remember the long walk I had on that day... I somehow felt very alone, as if I had seem a glimpse of another reality that I had no chance of explaining to my friends, my imagination had truly been kicked up a gear. For a long time I held this book as "The best book I had ever read", not so much for it's "literary" content, but for the emotions that I had felt while reading it, the likes of which I had never before experienced from a book. By comparison I found "Stranger in a strange land" (my next Heinlen) very difficult to read, and did not appreciate it until I read it (Stranger in a strage land) again some years later, it reminded me of when I tried to read Tolkien's "Silmarillion" after "Lord of the Rings". I think "I will fear no evil" remained my favorite book for several years, until I read "Number of the Beast" which *really* blew me away.

So, there you go, I hope I havent bored you, and I sincerely hope that you feel the same way as I did after reading this novel, especially if it's your first Heinlein.
