About this product

Product Information

With his wife dead and buried, and life nearly over at 75, John Perry takes the only logical course of action left: he joins the army. Now better known as the Colonial Defense Force (CDF), Perry's service-of-choice has extended its reach into interstellar space to pave the way for human colonization of other planets while fending off marauding aliens. The CDF has a trick up its sleeve that makes enlistment especially enticing for seniors: the promise of restoring their youth. After bonding with a group of fellow recruits who dub their clique the Old Farts, Perry finds himself in a new body crafted from his original DNA and upgraded for battle, including a brain-implanted computer. But all too quickly the Old Farts are separated, and Perry must fight for his life on various alien-infested battlegrounds. 'Scalzi's astonishingly proficient first novel reads like an original work by the late grand master, Robert A. Heinlein' Publishers Weekly 'Delivers fast-paced scenes of combat, and pays attention to the science underpinning his premise' San Francisco Chronicle

  • "The story I wish I'd wrote"

    Just the 'blurb' on the back caught my interest...? a 70 year old man going off to WAR! I had to read this and I wasn't disappointed, the story is fast moving and funny at times, but the reality of war is always there,also the 'what if' really makes you think, if the elderly or terminal were given a choice between a slow 'Death' or a chance of youth and join the army! which would you chose?
