Summary

5,000 years in the future, humanity faces total extermination.

Our one defence: highly-trained soldiers who scour the metal-strewn blackness of space to hunt down a terrifying enemy: an insect life-form known only as 'Bugs.'

This is the story of trooper Johnny Rico, from his idealistic enlistment in the infantry of the future through his rigorous training to the command of his own platoon. And his destiny is a war that will span the galaxy.

RC Bray was excellent

5 stars as usual for RC Bray. He did a masterful job with the source material. I have a love/hate relationship with classic Sci Fi and I need to consider when this was writtten but it was very dry and full of "I won't go into detail about the thing that would be infinitely more exciting thing than what I just wrote about at length".

I had struggled to get through this book in the past so the audiobook version was helpful in that regard but it felt like a manifesto with a couple of poorly detailed battles thrown in.
