Halderman explorers the difficulty inherent and being a soldier but also in returning to civilian life in this multi-century epic. I enjoyed it, but content warnings for some moments of pretty severe anti-lgbtq prejudice.
Moderate: Homophobia

BUT
Blatant sexism, misogynism, 0 likeable characters or any character writing at all, apart from the author self-insert.

Moderate: Homophobia
While not the most homophobic sci-fi of the 70s, repeatedly this book brings up how weird and strange it is that being homosexual is accepted in the future and even encouraged. Mild spoilers to follow detailing probably the most egregious example in my opinion.leeseloadenny's review against another edition
