Summary: A soldier in an alien landscape...
Review: "A soldier is trained to fight the good fight...but it helps if he knows who the enemy is."
Blair writes science fiction and about the military as though he'd visited the planets he's writing about while a member of some mobile infantry. In short, though the premise may seem a little far fetched (it is sci-fi, after all), it is told with the exuberance and detail that makes you wonder if it's made up at all. The lead character, Clay, is a good example of the hero, or even anti-hero, in modern literature. If you are into sci-fi, if you liked Starship Troopers, Predator, or Alien, this book is for you. Enjoy.
