An extremely interesting novel, with a twist on the traditional storyline: Cromwell (the traditional heavy or villain) is our sympathetic narrator. It also features a *nasty* portrait of Sir Thomas More.
An interesting question is if Cromwell here is an "unreliable narrator" or not.
Note: "He" is almost always Cromwell himself, but occasionally it's someone else, so do read carefully.
I may be in that small category of people who saw the 1984 movie before reading the book. I don't recommend this, actually.
Easily Heinlein's best known novel, but not his best (for my money, that's The Moon is a Harsh Mistress).
