Description
A journey of 167,000 lights years begins with—a bar of soap? Fasten your zero gravity restraints for Robert Heinlein’s novel of intergalactic adventure, a story that carries teenager Clifford “Kip” Russell from his job as soda jerk to spacesuit winner to alien abductee! Along the way Kip is joined by a pint-sized genius named PeeWee and an empathetic alien creature known as “the Mother Thing.” The story of how this strange trio battles alien gangsters only to end up on trial in an intergalactic court trillions of miles from Earth features all the wicked humor, brilliant detail, and g-force drama that made Robert Heinlein the world’s favorite science fiction writer. First published in 1958 as one of Heinlein’s “boy’s books”, Have Spacesuit, Will Travel soon found an adult audience as well, and has become one of the most beloved of all his novels. Now listeners can experience it as never before as the Full Cast Family of readers bring the characters to vivid new life in this...
Full Cast Audio continues its tradition of family-friendly audio with this title from science fiction great Robert A. Heinlein, in which a boy enters a contest with hopes of winning a trip to the moon. Instead, he wins a genuine used space suit that turns out to be his ticket to interstellar adventure. Narrator Will McAuliffe is supported by a full cast. In this audio program, some dialogue attribution ("he said," "she said") has been deleted since it's unnecessary in full-cast narration. This makes for a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience. Heinlein's classic YA novel and Full Cast Audio are a perfect match. S.D. 2005 Audie Award Finalist (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine
