★★★★

With his wife dead and buried, and life nearly over at 75, John Perry takes the only logical course of action left him: he joins the army. Now better known as the Colonial Defense Force (CDF), Perry's service-of-choice has extended its reach into interstellar space to pave the way for human colonization of other planets while fending off marauding aliens.

Review


This is one of those books that you can stay up until 3AM to finish. I really enjoyed his descriptions of battles and the underlying concepts were also unique and interesting. If you like SciFi, this is a must read.
