Well anyway I just want to talk about The Forever War. I've finished it recently and I can't get it out of my head, maybe my favorite SF book so far. The anguish and anxiety regarding the ''time travel'' after each campaign, going back to a world that has become so miserable and unfamiliar that the prospect of going back to the army to fight a meaningless war with minimal chances of survival seems reasonable. Then losing the only person that linked you to your world, your memories. Even the army has gotten too alien with their gay shit. It was the exact opposite of Starship Troopers (which I also enjoyed). At last it ended on a much happier, heartwarming note than I expected. The hivemind clones just allowed William to live in peace on some paradise planet with his best buddy (now cured of his gayness), the thirsty doctor and Marygay. Are Forever Free and Forever Peace as good as the original (pls no spoilers)

The Forever War was way better than I expected. The Earth segment was the best part. No wonder women and fags seethe so much about this book on gayreads.
