Jim and Frank, the two main protagonists, are even more well-written in my opinion, due in no small part to the fact that we’re following the story from their perspective (most of the time, though it should be noted that the narrative transitions came off so smooth and sensible for me, the story was made all the stronger for them!). Like so many others, I find the juvenile works of Robert Heinlein truly wonderful in their ability to be meaningful, modest, and extremely rewarding to read for ANYBODY (we are all still children, no matter our age, right?) The villains in this story are easy to hate because they seem so REAL while being so egotistically selfish. Now THIS is how to write a fun sci-fi story!
