Rent Assignment in Eternity

Synopsis

Classic novellas and short stories from the Dean of Science Fiction, Robert A. Heinlein.  Masterful speculation on what makes us human – and the problems, opportunities, and adventures humans must face in order to win a superhuman future.

Gulf: in which the greatest superspy of them all is revealed as the leader of a league of supermen and women who can't decide on quite what to do with the rest of us. The prequel to Heinlein's later New York Times best seller, Friday.

Lost Legacy: in which it is proved that we are all members of that league of the superhuman–or would be, if we but had eyes to see.

Plus two great short stories: two of the master's finest: one on the nature of being, the other on what it means to be a Man. The second story, "Jerry Was a Man," was adapted for the TV series "Masters of Science Fiction," and is now available on DVD.
