Forever War (16)

Forever War
Joe Halderman
Read 6/14/09

I have read science fiction by Halderman before, usually set in the future, usually with some over tone of war. This book starts out fine, about soldiers who sit in a room and "jack" together with their group to remotely control robot thousands of miles away fighting in an endless war. About 2/3 of the way through it the book takes a strange turn and starts going in several different directions which were not directly related to the beginning of the book. While it was not bad, I had trouble caring about what was going on, as it seemed very arbitrary and didn't really fit in well with the rest of the story.
