Title: Years before she was inflicted upon us, Haldeman predicted Sarah Palin!
Review: At least the pinheaded president of "The Coming" seemed to greatly resemble her. It's possibly the most (accidentally) intriguing aspect of this novel.Haldeman is a brilliant writer - I've read The Forever War and the Worlds Trilogy so many times, the books fell apart in my hands. This one isn't in the same league. For one thing, we almost - but don't quite - bond with the characters, in part because too many points of view are offered. The female protagonist's relationship with her husband is left unexplored, though as depicted it elicit too many nagging questions to be left alone. The response of the citizens of earth to the possible approach of an alien craft are quite hollow.Haldeman at his best draw us in with vibrant, lovable characters (like Marianne O'Hara from Worlds and Mandella from The Forever War. He could have done that here with a longer, more detailed book, but it didn't quite happen.
