Summary

This audiobook is an independent and unofficial overview, created solely for educational and informational purposes. It is not associated with, authorized by, or endorsed by the original author or publisher.

 
On his seventy-fifth birthday, John Perry does two things: he visits his wife’s grave, and he joins the army. But this is no ordinary military service—it's with the Colonial Defense Forces, who only accept recruits of advanced age. Offered a second chance at youth and the promise of defending humanity’s off-world colonies, Perry finds himself reborn into a body engineered for war. As he ventures into the violent frontiers of space, he must confront the brutal truths of combat, loyalty, and what it means to start life over when everything familiar is left behind. Old Man’s War is a thrilling and thought-provoking exploration of identity, technology, and the cost of survival in an unforgiving universe.
