Arc Manor is celebrating Heinlein’s legacy with a free eBook & discounting other titles. They are also offering a prize for the best essay on one of his books
"We proceed down the path marked by his [Heinlein's] ideas. He shows us where the future is.”— Tom Clancy
ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND, USA, June 10, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Robert A. Heinlein is considered one of the best writers ever to write science fiction. Often referred to as the Dean of Science Fiction, he, Isaac Asimov, and Arthur C. Clarke are considered the three main pillars of modern science fiction.
Arc Manor is a small press based in Maryland. It has published several of Heinlein’s works, including the first ever digital editions of many of these books through two of its imprints; Phoenix Pick and CAEZIK SF & Fantasy. CAEZIK SF & Fantasy also published Heinlein’s last published work: THE PURSUIT OF THE PANKERA in 2020 based on a rediscovered manuscript. Arc Manor currently publishes ten Heinlein’s titles, including DOUBLE STAR, the book that won Heinlein his first Hugo. All these titles (including PANKERA and DOUBLE STAR) are being steeply discounted through the month of June on their sale website, PublishersPick.com. A recently acquired title, THE PUPPET MASTERS, is expected to be released in December of 2021 in both digital and paper formats.
Readers may also enter a short essay competition on their favorite Heinlein book. That book does not have to be a book published by Arc Manor or any of its imprints. The prize includes a $100 Amazon gift card and a hardcover set of the two sister novels, THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST and THE PURSUIT OF THE PANKERA.
Detailed instructions for how to enter the essay competition are available on the Publishers Pick website at PublishersPick.com. We look forward to seeing your work.

Nice article with some practical information. I usually come across recipes, DIY projects, and design ideas that I want to watch again, so pinterest video download can be convenient in those situations.
낮 시간에 해야 할 일이 많은 분들도 저녁 시간을 활용해 경제 활동을 계획할 수 있다는 점이 매력적입니다. 시간대가 밤알바 일정 조정에 도움이 되고, 근무 환경과 업무 조건을 사전에 확인하면 자신의 상황에 맞춰 보다 효율적으로 활용할 수 있습니다.
평소 일정이 빠듯해서 관리 시간을 내기 어려웠는데 이동 부담이 없어서 편리했어요. 집이나 숙소에서 이용할 수 있어 시간을 출장마사지 사용할 수 있었습니다. 몸의 긴장감을 부드럽게 낮추고 편안하게 휴식하는 데 도움을 주어 바쁜 날의 피로 관리에 잘 어울렸습니다.
I entered a similar contest a few years ago for a different author and it's a fun way to revisit a book you love, though I always wonder how they pick the winner among all the entries. That discount on DOUBLE STAR is tempting since it won his first Hugo, but I haven't read THE PURSUIT OF THE PANKERA yet so the prize hardcover set is a nice hook. — Iron Nest Guide homepage
Interesting that the Heinlein contest is still going strong—curious if they’re accepting submissions on themes like his later Lazarus Long stuff. I’ve been digging into similar writing prompts over at https://lyrics-to-song-ai.com
