Science Fiction
Private William Mandella is a hero in spite of himself -- a
reluctant conscript drafted into an elite military unit, and
propelled through space and time to fight in a distant
thousand-year conflict. He never wanted to go to war, but
the leaders on Earth have drawn a line in the interstellar
sand -- despite the fact that their fierce alien enemy is
unknowable, unconquerable, and very far away. So Mandella
will perform his duties without rancor and even rise up
through the military's ranks . . . if he survives. But the
true test of his mettle will come when he returns to Earth.
Because of the time dilation caused by space travel the
loyal soldier is aging months, while his home planet is
aging centuries -- and the difference will prove the saying:
you never can go home. . .
