The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Heinlein, Robert
Filed under: Sci-Fi | Buy on Amazon
I read this a while ago and had to reread it. Just as good as I remembered.
I enjoyed the mix of action and politics. Sometimes the politics and high-level governmental organization scheming gets to be a bit much, but this one has a nice mix. Plenty of science fiction action and a nice political plot centered around a revolution on the moon.
My favorite part of the book is the weapon of the Loonies--throwing rocks at earth. Amazing how potentially devastating that could be.
