Violence has its own economy, therefore be thoughtful and precise in your investment

I binged through Marko Kloos' Frontlines series over the past week. I'm not sure if it qualifies for this thread considering it's a MilSF story that isn't all about rah rah America gently caress Yeah but I enjoyed it for what it was. Main character signs up as a grunt to pull himself out of Social Welfare Hell (class structures so stratified you'd need a Delta 9 to cross into middle class, apparently) and ends up in a first contact situation. It was pretty good, although Andrew always seems to get a solo berthing on every starship he's assigned to, for some reason.

I expected their German recon vehicle they ride in the fifth book to catastrophically fail before it did, especially since its on an entirely different planet then earth honestly.

In the universe of To Honor You Call Us Northern Ireland is still ruled by the British. That was actually really more depressing then the whole aliens out to destroy humanity thing. :smith:
