Trade ReviewGripping and surpassingly original. It's
Starship Troopers without the lectures . . . It's funny, it's sad, and it's true -- Cory Doctorow
I enjoyed
Old Man's War immensely. A space war story with fast action, vivid characters, moral complexity, and cool speculative physics, set in a future you almost want to live into, and a universe you sincerely hope you don't live in already -- Ken MacLeod
John Scalzi is the most entertaining, accessible writer working in SF today -- Joe Hill
