Clear and pleasant writing without detours. SF accurate and understandable concepts (time dilation) that produce a metaphor spun on the life of a Vietnam veteran.
Antimilitarist criticism without concession or facility, hero endearing and human, everything is there.
One can rightly ask why the book has not been adapted into film after the graphic novel ...
A masterpiece and a one_of SciFi-a-kind work. A too-human hero you can root for it right from the Beginning to the end. Filled with despair on the cruelty of our humanoid yet a striking commentary on war, Especially When one knows the author's background as a Vietnam veteran. The scientific concepts are still solid Long After icts first release, it's quite an easy read without being white oversimplified.
The only thing I keep asking myself: why oh Why Has not there beens Any movie adaptation?
