The Cat Who Walks Through Walls is like Alien Vs. Predator. Heinlein devotees will like it, but it is short on literary merit. We delight to revisit the world of The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, with a bit of who-dunnit thrown in, but after a little while we end up meeting characters from other works in a heavily meta-literary setting, that is just a bit much. So if you like Heinlein this book is fun, but it falls short of the majesty of Moon, and the innocent wonder of a work like Have Spacesuit Will Travel. Good, but not great.

interesting...kind of hard to follow in some ways. But, you know, Heinlein. :-)

Heinlein is truely the master. New charecters and old get together for a journey across heinlein's space.

It's Heinlen, so I love it, but I didn't like it nearly as well as Time Enough for Love or Number of hte Beast. Not bad, good fun.

This isn't the best Heinlein I have ever read but it was still enjoyable.
