About this listen

In Robert A. Heinlein’s controversial Hugo Award-winning bestseller, a recruit of the future goes through the toughest boot camp in the Universe—and into battle against mankind’s most alarming enemy …

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids.

Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job …

The movies and show are different from the book but both are epic. If you love the movies you do yourself an injustice if you don't spend the time listening to this!

Way better than the movie

Those who watch the movies maybe going into this book with a misapprehension. Reading this book is more like listening to a veteran tell you about the war. It's hard to explain, but I recommend giving it a listen. The narrator does an excellent job punching up dialog that could very easily, if read wrong, put you to sleep. I highly recommend him.
Overall: A decent listen. I like the world the author conveys. The narrator did very well, but the story itself is a little stiff.

Not an action sci-fi. That's fine with me.
