I find his later (adult) novels more juvenile that the actual juvenile, while you expect wish fulfillment concepts in novels aimed at YA's these male fantasy themes he is obsessed with in his novels for adults are both sad from a maturity stand point and boring. You have to imagine what someone else Clarke, Simak, Anderson could have done with a human child raised by Heinelin's martians.<br /><br />Regards<br />Guy<br /> Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12546069846136464138noreply@blogger.com
