Robert A. Heinlein

A young man reports for the final tests for appointment as a cadet in the Interplanetary Patrol, survives the tests, studies in the school ship, and goes on a regular Patrol vessel and encounters danger on Venus.

I don't know if someone not interested in sci-fi would find this book terribly captivating. I was skeptical that I would like it, but found that even the parts in sci-fi that I find tedious and boring -- describing the technology, how it works and relates to the characters -- were so well written that I enjoyed them as well.

The first Heinlein novel I've ever read, but I'm sure going to find another one soon.
