“I enjoyed Old Man's War immensely. A space war story with fast action, vivid characters, moral complexity and cool speculative physics, set in a future you almost want to live into, and a universe you sincerely hope you don't live in already.” MenWantWarCharacterStoriesActionUniverseSpaceMoralPhysicsEnjoyedComplexityOld ManVividSincerelyWar Stories Author:Ken MacLeod
“Hey, this is Europe. We took it from nobody; we won it from the bare soil that the ice left. The bones of our ancestors, and the stones of their works, are everywhere. Our liberties were won in wars and revolutions so terrible that we do not fear our governors: they fear us. Our children giggle and eat ice-cream in the palaces of past rulers. We snap our fingers at kings. We laugh at popes. When we have built up tyrants, we have brought them down. And we have nuclear ********* weapons.” ChildrenWarCountryPastLeftLibertyLaughingRevolutionKingsTerribleWeaponsEuropeBuiltStonesOur ChildrenDown AndFingersBonesNuclearIceHeySoilTyrantsAncestorRulersNuclear WeaponsGovernorsCreamPopeIce CreamPalacesSnapsDo Not FearGiggleEuropean Countries Author:Ken MacLeod
