Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein

wfzimmerman’s review: “LOCUS Magazine ran a remarkably mush-minded appreciation of Heinlein on the 100th anniversary of his birth. The plain truth is that much of Heinlein’s later writing is now plainly embarrassing and we should not want it to stand the test of time. The same is not true of [[STARSHIP TROOPERS]]. This is still a terrific book and its brand of tough-minded ecological militarism is still much in need as the world struggles with the implications of having 6.5 billion "boss primates" underfoot.”
