A review by chan_fry
Beyond This Horizon by Robert A. Heinlein

2.0

Aside from really interesting world-building (including a couple of astounding predictions, considering this was the 1940s) and startling economic ideas in the background, this book was disappointing and poorly written. The story jumps around all over the place, trying to do too much at once, and the exposition is shoe-horned in so awkwardly that it didn’t feel like Heinlein at all. It doesn’t help that the narrator switches perspectives from character to character without warning or that the reader can never tell whether a paragraph is what some character is thinking or what the impersonal narrator is telling us.
