Description
War in the 21st century is fought by "soldierboys". Remote-controlled mechanical monsters, they are run by human soldiers who hard-wire their brains together to form each unit. Julian is one of these dedicated soldiers, until he inadvertently kills a young boy. Now he struggles to understand how this has changed his mind.
Forever Peace is a riveting portrayal of the effects of collective consciousness, and it offers some tantalizing revelations. Narrator George Wilson's skillful performance weaves together the elements of futuristic technology with the drama of a trained soldier reconciling basic human needs.

Great narrative, but not as compelling as Forever War
This entry in the series is much longer in length and much larger in scope. While it is still quite enjoyable, with deeper character connections than the first book, I personally was not as hooked. Dont go into this expecting Forever War 2. Take it as a much grander thematic experience in the context of human warfare and especially the Vietnam era. Thats all i got for now. Excited for book 3!

The book was alright.
I enjoyed the story but I found myself comparing it to the first one and I was certainly intrigued by that story. The performance was good and character depth progressed. I did find the concepts articulated about the future when this book was written to be fascinating! To think that some of these ideas he wrote some time ago are now very much real or well on their way to being real.
Overall good book to discover with no ties to the first one it seems.

Not a sequel to forever war
While this is listed as part of the series, it doesn’t follow the story at all. Skip this book and go to the next book.

Good but not Great
Joe Haldeman has written an interesting premise of military coup of the world. It unfortunately has to measure up against his previous work, Forever War, and does not seem to quite grasp the tempo and gravity of it's predecessor. Still it has some interesting perspectives on humanity than Joe explores while interspersed with scenes of sporadic violence. It's definitely a good choice of you're a fan of Mr. Haldeman or sci-fi in general.
