Engineered from the finest genes, and trained to be a secret courier in a future world, Friday operates over a near-future Earth, where chaos reigns. Working at Boss's whimsical behest she travels from far north to deep south, finding quick, expeditious solutions as one calamity after another threatens to explode in her face.... Fabulous Heinlein world of fascination and intrigue.
I used to like Heinlein a lot when I was younger. But I've been spoiled by more recent authors, and Heinlein's characters no longer draw me in enough. It's a fun story, with good technology and social commentary (appropriate for the time it was written). If you like Heinlein, you'll like this book.
