3.0 out of 5 stars Really, almost four stars....., October 22, 2001

This review is from: Battle Station (Mass Market Paperback)

Interesting reading. A little dated now, but still ok....

It's a group of short stories and articles ranging from 5 pages to 50 pages. The articles are out of date, But Bova came up with interesting stories of what may happen in the future.

The first story is the best of the lot. Battle stations protecting the earth from itself. multi national peace keeping force.... Mutiny and destruction...

The next good story is the international baseball teams. Instead of war, play baseball. Nixon is the team manager of USA when they go up against Cuba for influence of the Carribbean.

Anyway, it's an ok read. Ben Bova does a good job of story telling.

Conflicting military forces are able to work together, to help shape a world freed from economic need and global annihilation, and are ready to colonize the stars. This book will inspire those who dream of exploring the vastness of the last great unkown. A great adventure.
