Description de l’éditeur

Recovering from combat duty, E.C. "Scar" Gordon encounters a beautiful, sensual woman who sweeps him from this universe into another that seems far more dangerous... Dragons, hostile guards and strange customs are just some of the challenges confronting Gordon, who must respond with courage, skill and grace.


Heinlein's wit, wisdom, social commentary and humor are on full display in this brilliant fantasy novel that presents other worlds to illuminate and evaluate our own.


Callled "a triumph" by the Chicago Tribune,  The Reader's Guide to Fantasy wrote "GLORY ROAD is a tour de force performance that delights lovers of both fantasy and science fiction."


Sample quotes from Scar Gordon in GLORY ROAD


"Logic is a way of saying that anything which didn’t happen yesterday won’t happen tomorrow."


"An insult is like a drink; it affects one only if accepted." 


"A man who always obeys the law is even stupider than one who breaks it every chance."


"The person who says smugly that good manners are the same everywhere and people are just people hasn’t been farther out of Podunk than the next whistle stop."


on Robert A. Heinlein:

"Not only America's premier writer of speculative fiction, but the greatest writer of such fiction in the world … [Heinlein] remains today as a sort of trademark for all that is finest in American imaginative fiction."  

- Stephen King


"There is no other writer whose work has exhilarated me as often and to such an extent as Heinlein."

- Dean Koontz


"One of the most influential writers in American Literature." 

- The New York Times Book Review


"Heinlein wears imagination as though it were his private suit of clothes." 

- The New York Times


"Heinlein… has the ability to see technologies just around the bend. That, combined with his outstanding skill as a writer and engineer-inventor, produces books that are often years ahead of their time."

- The Philadelphia Inquirer


"One of the grand masters of science fiction."

- The Wall Street Journal
