I've read two of the three chronicles, he rapes his daughter and is a leper. its a depressing book. I'm reading the third series and so far it's even worse.

i am the opposite, i used to be really right-wing in my teens, now i'm liberal socialist
I remember steel said something about that also, that it's common for people to change from conservative libertarian to libsocialist and vice versa

I'm almost halfway through Stranger in a Strange Land. It's entertaining, but not as thought-provoking as I expected (I've never read Heinlein). Some of the character interactions are REALLY cheesy, I'm talking like anime romance cheesy. You've got this innocent, socially inept dude from Mars who captures the attention of about 4 beautiful women who all happen to live in the same mansion. It's like Tenchi Muyo.
