YA-- The second installment in Haldeman's futuristic, antiwar tale. A 1000-year conflict between humans and Taurans--the result of misunderstanding, bigotry, and politics--is seen through the eyes of William Mandella. After their company is decimated in battle, he and his friend/lover return to Earth to find that 26 years have passed. Suffering from future shock and alienation, both reenlist to be instructors on the moon, only to be reassigned to combat and shipped off to different units. The simple, spare artwork captures the essence of Haldeman's cynical, episodic novel, depicting the horrors of war and the perseverance of the human spirit. A book for those libraries needing quality graphic novels.
