:) ... I think this is a moment when I can safely mention that Heinlein was probably one of the first readers of The Door Into Fire (I'd been in touch with him, as the closeness of titles was on my mind and I wanted to make sure it was OK with him) -- and he really, really, really liked that book.
I have his fan letter still. It gives me the blushes to read it. Some bits of it would make the best front-cover blurb ever... but I just can't use it, as he really hated having his private correspondence quoted. Oh well.
