5.0 out of 5 stars Greatest Military and Philosophy Book combined!, September 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Regiment (Mass Market Paperback)

It starts as a military story but what it is, is a story about a new philosophy combatting against a federation that strives and kills for the status quo...and it brings you along until you totally get the ideas and concepts of the T'sel Which rocks beyond belief!

4.0 out of 5 stars One of his best, August 30, 2000

magellan (Santa Clara, CA) - See all my reviews
(HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (COMMUNITY FORUM 04) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: The Regiment (Mass Market Paperback)

The is one of Dalmas' best works. The Regiment is an engaging story about a human who joins a group of the universe's best soldiers in order to learn more about them, with some intersting sidelines on metaphysics and military philosophy thrown in. I like Dalmas and think he is one of the better authors to come along in the 70s. A quick read and a good book to kill a Sat. afternoon.
