Stranger in a Strange Land by Heinlein, hands down the best example o Modern Science Fiction around. Heinlein lead the way in re-defining the genre and I've read just about all of his books.

I'm always reading Sci-Fi short story anthologies. Nebula Award winners, Hugo Award Winners, and Collections o the best SF over the last however many years...I always have one in my car or bookbag for when I have a few moments to read.

I like to read...just about anywhere really. I supposed my favorite place would be on a hill overlooking the ocean as I lay in a hammock, gently swaying in the salty, sea breeze. That would be really cool.

The only complete things I have are poems. I guess I have a sort o knack for those.

Dr. Zebadiah Carter from Heinlein's "The Number of the Beast." Not only is he very smart, dashing, and married to an incredible woman, but he gets to travel the dimensions, those created by Time, those by Physics, and those by Ficta. And if you know what Ficta is then we should talk ; )
