Synopsis
In Robert A. Heinlein's controversial Hugo Award-winning bestseller, a recruit of the future goes through the toughest boot camp in the Universe--and into battle against mankind's most alarming enemy... Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up--and definitely not the infantry. But now that he's in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn't kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job... "A classic...If you want a great military adventure, this one is for you."-- All SciFi
Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (116)
- g***d (117)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAll in all I am happy with this seller despite the circumstances. I ordered a brand new item, but when it arrived it was a retired library book. An error on the seller's part, which they made EVERY effort to correct once they were made aware. Communication with them was direct, reciprocated and honest. I was given options in regards to the error in my order, and we settled on a partial refund. This is more courtesy and effort than I've experienced with other sellers on Ebay, so thank you. Cheers
- d***x (1186)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis book was never shipped. After I purchased this book (LAST ONE, according with the seller), the sellers page uploaded "another" book: same title, same photo, same description, with a price five times of the original. After reviewing this seller's feedback, one learns it's something he does frequently. Sell a book, refuse to honer the sale, list the same book at a higher price. I should've check the feedback, my mistake. Seller responded with tracking, several days later still not shipped.
- d***u (608)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseNew quality as indicated. Price was very competitive. Arrived in good condition. The picture is of the 3rd Edition, but the 4th Edition was shipped, which was ok with me. Appearance is a little different as the cover isn't the same but again that's ok. Shipping seemed a little long, but I wasn't in a super hurry so a few more days was ok, plus it came book class which takes a little longer and tracking isn't as good. Overall, I would buy from again.Serendipity Bible for Groups, New International Version (#296787811494)
