Title: It's a TV book
Review: This is a story set in the future about a soldier and his experiences fighting an insurmountable alien force; you're thinking "so what, almost all sci-fi novels are like that." So what makes the book special? Nothing, really.It's a rather dull book with no big twists that I bought completely off the reccommendations of others. Even Steakley's command of the English language is a little shaky throughout the book. Our protagonist, Felix, is a bit of a weird one and I had a hard time identifying with his character; and when that happens, it suddenly becomes a very hard novel to finish.This novel is good for nothing more than passing time; a "TV book" if you will. If I had the choice to read Ringworld (L Niven) for the 10th time, or this book for the first, I would go with the former.
