    'The Forever War' examines what will life be like when the human race takes to the stars. Don't be mislead by the word 'war'. There's fighting, but it's secondary to the examination of how a human being might be affected by travelling at sub light speeds for extended periods of time.

    Haldeman takes a stab at making futures that might not be anything like you might imagine Earth's prospects to be, but that is the point. He makes the future so foreign, it makes the story that much more enveloping and fascinating. It would be impossible to really communicate how much time has passed, otherwise.

    Whoever's reading this review should read this book. It's not long, but it will give you lots to think about.
