A reboot of ‘Starship Troopers’ is in the works at Sony, with ‘District 9’ and ‘Chappie’ director Neill Blomkamp attached to helm.
I want my power armor.
Read the first chapter of the novel. One of the best battle scenes ever written.
Also, the scene where The Lieutenant goes back to save a trooper and that action delays the launch. The shuttle’s pilot is sure everyone is going to die, but the mother ship’s Captain flies in by eye and makes the pickup.
If you enjoy power armor stories, give “Armor” a shot.
Read the summary. Wish I could read, it sounds awesome
If you like war stories, give “Night Soldiers” a shot. A young Bulgarian is killed by a fascist mob. His brother is recruited into the KGB and is sent to fight in Spain. Reads like a collaboration between Franz Kafka and Ian Fleming. Alan Furst is the author.
