Description
Peace And War by Joe Haldeman
WAR
William Mandela is a reluctant hero, drafted to fight in a distant interstellar war against unknowable and unconquerable aliens. But his greatest test will be returning to Earth. A few months of his tour of duty equate to centuries on his homeworld, during which he becomes increasingly isolated from the world he has been fighting to protect.
FREE
Mandela returns home for the last time to find humanity has evolved into a group consciousness which excludes him. Alone, alienated, and missing the certainties of combat, he and his fellow veterans search for an escape—and finally look towards space.

A war is raging, fought by indestructible machines operated remotely by soldiers miles away. For soldiers like Julian Class, war is truly hell. So when he and his companion, Dr. Amelia Harding, uncover something which could take the universe back to square one, the prospect isn't so much terrifying, as terrifyingly tempting...
