Book Reviews of Old Man's War
Book Review: 2.5 stars on the Amazon scale...
Summary: 2 Stars
...I've seen it written in a few places that Scalzi follows in the Heinlein tradition of scifi. The Heinlein that gave us Stranger in a Strange Land. The Heinlein that gave us The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. And the Heinlein that gave us Starship Troopers. In full disclosure mode, I admit that I'm not terribly familiar with Heinlein's work. I read a novel or two of his in high school before largely moving on to Gibson, Vonnegut, and other novelists that better resonated with me. A lesson there? Perhaps not....
