Are two authors worthy of addition to the above list.

Good to see someone else likes The Forever War!! One must be careful as Haldeman insisted on regularly updating his book, so later editions are quiote different to the original. I had a copy and it went walkabout so a bought a new one and it was noticeably altered.
Still one of the best!! Has everything, interstellar war, time travel, lots of sex, anti war sentiment. All round good fun!!
