Thanks for making me aware of this novel, I'm off to the library first thing tomorrow.

Pillager - 2014-12-09 You won't be disappointed. It's an excellent rebuttal to Starship Troopers.

Old People - 2014-12-09 An excellent and profoundly boring rebuttal. Also, in real life, physics nerds with IQs of 150 don't make good soldiers. Can't believe that shit was written by a combat vet.
There's a great nonfiction book of the same name, written by Dexter Filkins, an embedded reporter's grunt's-eye view of the current War on Terror. It contains some of the best-written and most accurate accounts of modern urban combat I've ever read.

The Mothership - 2014-12-09 I've read Starship Troopers, and Ender's Game, and I'm guessing this book here is somewhere inbetween them, give or take. Still sounds good, and thanks for the crit, as I know you are both people who know something about war and that.
