![]() ![]() Tanks learn to love.ĭon't get me wrong, that's extremely amusing, it's just a little confusing to me. This is strange, because as much as the book is about war machines, much of their stories are about how. ![]() ![]() And they are, annihilating armies, with impressive detail of just how the various weapons systems and technologies are being used. From the technical specifications (helpfully provided in the back of the book, fully thirty four pages) these tanks seemed to start at 'mobile fortress' and end somewhere around 'Battleship sized army annihilating demigods,' sometimes in roughly that description. To those who don't know, the Bolo is some kind of super main battle tank developed and sent into the warzones of an alternate year 2000 (as the original stories were written in the seventies). I think the only comparison I can draw is a passing familiarity with hard sci-fi in general or the sort of unimaginable scope in stories such as the fiction of Warhammer 40,000. To say 'incredible' in every sense of the word is my response. ![]() I was only passingly familiar with this series before I read this book. So, for those that have read the Bolo-verse, this will probably seem pretty irreverent and ill-informed. ![]()
