You read Stranger in a Strange Land and went looking for other stuff? Is that it?

Nah; Just picked up a couple of paperbacks in a yard sale for a quarter a pop. None of his more renown works, unfortunately.

I read Puppet Masters and Farmer in the Sky and figured they were decent enough. They weren't anything amazing, but for pulpy sci-fi they were quick reads that threw concepts at you for further thought. Then I decided between Glory Road, Space Cadet and I Will Fear No Evil, and choose Evil because it seemed hefty and the name sounded cool.

Now I don't wanna touch the rest for a while. I'll read them since I bought them, but they'll be sitting there until maybe next year.
