Old Man's War has my two favorite moments in a sci-fi novel. When they're eavesdropping in on alien broadcasts and it turns out they're watching the ET equivalent of Julia Child. The other is when they invade a planet of Lilliputians like aliens and proceed to Godzilla their way through a major city until the main character has a nervous breakdown because Jesus Christ this is so hosed.


I liked when they were invading some ape furry planet or something and these aliens fell back to like a central bowl thing and started to sing, and one of the main characters squadmates was a senator or some type of politican when he was young, he was a bit of a rear end in a top hat too. Hes like they are singing they are trying to surrender to save their people and he just runs into the aliens stadium thing that he describes as a church and is all like "My name is Senator X im Here to negotiate lets save your people" and than he gets shot full of scifi weapon.

Read Eisenhorn.


Can anyone recommend a time-travling solider story a-la A Dry Quite War? Or just time traveling with some conflict?
