March: We Are Legion (We Are Bob) (Bobiverse #1) by Dennis Taylor

Discuss The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein in the comments below.

Fiasco was translated into English in 1988 by Michael Kandel:

Fiasco (Polish: Fiasko) is a science fiction novel by Polish author Stanisław Lem, first published in a German translation in 1986. The book, published in Poland the following year, is a further elaboration of Lem's skepticism: in Lem's opinion, the difficulty in communication with alien civilizations is cultural disparity rather than spatial distance. The failure to communicate with an alien civilization is the main theme of the book.

    I used to read Time Enough For Love once a year, or parts of it at least.
    I quite liked the hard science aspect of Moon, but the ending never really clicked for me.

    And which parts would that be? Only once a year? - yeah right.

      Well, it's not exactly a thin book. As time went by I spent less time reading, more time online, gaming, etc. So, yeah, I'd only read the story about the twins, or a chapter or so. It's called Life. Be in it.
