I'd have to agree with the second review here. I appreciated the book for what it was trying to achieve in it's time, but I couldn't get over how silly it was that in the book, the government ends up psychologically conditioning every human being to be homosexual for 'population control' purposes. I mean really, BC doesn't exist in a future with collapsars and stasis fields?! And then at the end, they offer to turn them all straight so they can live a 'normal life' on another planet, and even though some of the soldiers are disgusted by the idea they agree to it!. The author's complete ignorance of homosexuality was probably acceptable when the book was released, but now it just harms the overall quality of the work.
