This is a smart, fast-paced, action adventure military sci-fi prose novel, which was the inspiration for the film Edge of Tomorrow. As one reviewer noted its basically Groundhog Day meets Halo except I would say that this is a rather serious look at the effects of war. The premise revolves around young recruit Keiji Kiriya who discovers that he’s caught in a time loop against the alien ‘Mimics. He is shoved into a suit of battle armor called a Jacket and is sent out to kill, only to die on the battlefield, then reborn each morning to fight and repeat the same battle. After each death he awakes on the eve of battle and attempts to progress future with the knowledge he’s previously learnt from the last loop. On his 158th iteration, he gets a message from a female soldier, the warrior known as The Full Metal Bitch, who might be the key to escape or his final death. Truly, as John Scalzi says on the cover: This is smart science fiction for the adrenaline junkie. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

The live, die, repeat action sequences are well done, the characterisation is appropriate, but the battle sequences are the main element of the book, if you don't like a good fight, you won't like this! ( )
