What I'm Listening to Now: The Cat Who Walks Through Walls by Robert A. Heinlein
This is actually one of my favorite later Heinlein books, mostly because of the self-conscious revelation of the multiverse, literary paradoxes, and the "world as myth". I can understand why some readers found the book a little too annoying, but I think it's good clean fun by one of the masters.
The main advantage this production has over the previous one I had is that it is unabridged. I actually like Robert Vaughn's reading of it better in the abridged version. The reader of this production had an annoying cadence that took me a while to become accustomed to.
