The Erotic Adventures of Podkayne - Nathaniel Justice - Bog

Podkayne manages alcohol and food on her family's spaceship, the Mother Lode. Her mother is the Captain and her father is the First Officer and Chief Purser. She is just now 18 years and about three days old when her parents tell her she is named for Robert A. Heinlein's novel heroine "Podkayne of Mars". They also inform her she is exactly like Heinlein's Podkayne except she is a little sexpot. They also ask her to keep her sexcapades discreet as every man wants a woman without much of a sexual past to teach her himself. They don't believe she's a virgin waiting for her right man. The right man turns out to be Joe Potterby; he's leaving Earth because they forbid surgery to force out migration. He is going with the ship to Alpha Centauri. Poddy and Joe just hit it off... she becomes his girlfriend but, if Joe gets his surgery at the final port of call, as well as her virginity, they have to stop the sabotage of the ship from rival spacelines... In the grand tradition of Robert A. Heinlein... see the Author dedication in his afterword.
