About this ebook
Waldo
North Power¾Air is in trouble. Their aircraft are crashing at an alarming rate, and no one can figure out the cause. Desperate for an answer, they turn to Waldo, a crippled genius who lives in a zero¾g home in orbit around Earth. But Waldo has little reason to want to help the rest of humanity¾until he learns that the solution to Earths problems also hold the key to his own.
Magic, Inc.
Under the guise of an agency for magicians, Magic, Inc. systematically squeezed out the small independent magicians. Then one businessman stood firm. But one man stands firm. And with the help of an Oxford¾educated African shaman and a little old lady adept at black magic, he is willing to take on the demons of Hell to resolve the problem¾once and for all!
New afterword by Tim Powers!

Another set of stories that are a little different then the average Heinlein. But still adapt at using characters and situations that are fantastical to explore our own social mechanisms and maneuverings.

Heinlein at his best
About the author
Robert A Heinlein is considered one of the _Big ThreeÓ of classic science fiction (along with Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke). Heinlein is a seven-time Hugo Award recipient and was given the first Grand Master Nebula Award for lifetime achievement. Heinleins juveniles alone have influenced generations of scientists, engineers and creators the world over (for instance, it was once estimated that everyone in the Apollo 11 mission control room had read and loved at least one Heinlein novel). His worldwide bestsellers include Have Space Suit Will Travel, Stranger in a Strange Land, Starship Troopers, Time Enough for Love, and The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress.
