Location: New Zealand		Finished my 1951 book, Between Planets by Heinlein. Can't say I was impressed. If I had been a teenage boy growing up in the 1950's I would probably have loved it, but I am none of those things, and it did nothing for me at all. Lots of running around deering-do by teenager on the loose who manages to save everyone.

And I can't get over the fact that Venus somehow has a native population, and they are dragons. Why would they be a creature out of earth's mythology? They should be something completely different.

Next up: City by Clifford Simak
