Tropas Del Espacio. by Heinlein, Robert.;
«'Starship Troopers' es un clásico, imprescindible por sí mismo y por su posterior influencia en varias generaciones de autores. Sin él, Joe Haldeman nunca hubiese podido escribir 'La guerra interminable'.» -Review Journal «Las sociedades imaginadas por los mejores autores de la ciencia ficción siempre estarán rodeadas de un cierto halo de polémica: el Arrakis de 'Dune', la fortísima militarización de 'Starship Troopers'... Es la base de su éxito.» -New York Newsday «Robert A. Heinlein es uno de los escritores que, con el devenir de los tiempos, más han contribuido a cohesionar y a entregar entidad al género de la ciencia ficción.» -Stardust Sinopsis: La Tierra, siglo XXIII: Johnnie Rico acaba de cumplir los dieciocho, y por fin se puede alistar en el Ejército para cumplir con el servicio de dos años, tras el cuál se convertirá en un ciudadano con derecho al voto. A instancias de un amigo, Rico se alista en la infantería móvil. Tras un duro periodo de instrucción en el campamento Arthur Currie, bajo las órdenes del sargento Zim, Rico se convirtió en un soldado cualificado. Mientras tanto, una especie alienígena con aspecto de insecto gigante ataca la Tierra con una violencia inusitada, convirtiendo la ciudad de Buenos Aires en un amasijo de escombros. Es el momento de que Johnnie Rico y sus compañeros prueben su valía en un combate real... en el espacio. Robert A. Heinlein está considerado junto a Isaac Asimov y Arthur. C. Clarke uno de los tres pilares de la ciencia ficción pura, y sus libros han vendido más de cincuenta millones de copias solo en América.
