Review of 'Starman Jones' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Captivating, totally in-the-groov Heinlein Juvenile. I don't think it can quite topple Space Cadet in my love of his (what we must now call YA) series of works but this one had it all. From the bottom up, heroics, aliens and TANSTAFL all the way. Huzzah!
