First he visited his wife's grave. Then he joined the army.\n\nThe good news is that humanity finally made it into interstellar space. The bad news is that planets fit to live on are scarce―and alien races willing to fight us for them are common. So: we fight. To defend Earth, and to stake our own claim to planetary real estate. Far from Earth, the war has been going on for decades: brutal, bloody, unyielding.\n\nEarth itself is a backwater. The bulk of humanity's resources are in the hands of the Colonial Defense Force. Everybody knows that when you reach retirement age, you can join the CDF. They don't want young people; they want people who carry the knowledge and skills of decades of living. You'll be taken off Earth and never allowed to return. You'll serve two years at the front. And if you survive, you'll be given a generous homestead stake of your own, on one of our hard-won colony planets.\n\nJohn Perry is taking that deal. He has only the vaguest idea what to expect. Because the actual fight, light-years from home, is far, far harder than he can imagine―and what he will become is far stranger.\n\nOld Man's War Series\n#1 Old Man’s War\n#2 The Ghost Brigades\n#3 The Last Colony\n#4 Zoe’s Tale\n#5 The Human Division\n#6 The End of All Things\nShort fiction: “After the Coup”\n\nOther Tor Books\nThe Android’s Dream\nAgent to the Stars\nYour Hate Mail Will Be Graded\nFuzzy Nation\nRedshirts\nLock In\nThe Collapsing Empire\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0765348276\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGY3007IUI_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Scalzi, John\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Mass Market Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
