About this listen

First time on audio! The original novel that inspired the sci-fi blockbuster film starring Tom Cruise!

When the alien Mimics invade, Keiji Kiriya is just one of many recruits shoved into a suit of battle armor called a Jacket and sent out to kill. Keiji dies on the battlefield, only to be reborn each morning to fight and die again and again. On his 158th iteration, he gets a message from a mysterious ally - the female soldier known as the Full Metal Bitch. Is she the key to Keiji's escape or his final death?

Took two reads to really grasp this

If you could sum up Edge of Tomorrow (Movie Tie-in Edition) in three words, what would they be?

Unique, Ambiguous, Clever

What other book might you compare Edge of Tomorrow (Movie Tie-in Edition) to and why?

What's great about Edge of Tomorrow is that it's fairly unique to the genre. While alien invaders have been done many times, the melding of the Groundhog Day scenario is clever. I'm not sure there is a clean comparison here.

Have you listened to any of Mike Martindale’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I am not sure. The reading is quite good though and I've no complaints about the narrator.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

The filmmakers did a good job on that one. No need for me to rehash here.

Any additional comments?

This is an excellent book. The story moves at a great pace for the topic and it tackles the time travel exposition in a clever manner. The ending is a bit confusing, but that adds a lot to the book.

Loved the movie, not so sure about the book

Any additional comments?

I'm not sure where the folks that put the movie got their story from, but it was not from this book. I got the book to maybe help clarify some of the mysteries left after watching the movie. The book was fine, but did nothing to help understand the movie...

Much better than the movie, and the movie was terr

The book opens with the internal dialogue of "The Angel of Verdun" rather than the weaselly Public Information Officer that you may have been familiar with, from the movie. Suddenly, you realize you're listening to a woman's view, and a badass, at that. From that point on, imagine what a difference that makes, in your perspective. Highly recommended.

Military Sci Fi Grind at it's finest

Would you listen to Edge of Tomorrow (Movie Tie-in Edition) again? Why?

I love military Sci Fi Fiction. This captured the horrors of war while relating it to this generations view of war as a video game. Excellent satire as always from one of my favorite Genres.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Rita, The Full Metal Bitch. It was a short story but her character was Cold as ice and surprisingly vulnerable. Well Realized Bad Ass!

What does Mike Martindale bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

His delivery is fantastic. I just thought Keiji should have probably sounded more japanese. It's a silly Knit PIck I know.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It had a bit of dark humor and like most war fiction had some very sad imagery.

Any additional comments?

This was my first Audible DL and I just want to say I'm very happy with Audible.com bringing me listening that I can't get anywhere else.

Good book

Refreshingly not Hollywood. I wish I understood why they were radio transmitters to the enemy and they needed to kill one another.
