Summary

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?

Although there will be a distance between book and film, some of which which be the interesting clashes and mixing of food stuffs that make this story amusing and accessible, it's still a great, slice of sci-fi silliness, if you only saw the film...the book is still worth reading.

Great Fun

Really enjoyed this more than I was expecting. I wasn’t to sure about the ending but at the same time I wouldn’t mind a sequel which the ending allows

Super enjoyable if you liked the film

I really enjoyed the edge of tomorrow movie and the book blew the movie adaption out of the water in every way, which is impressive as edge of tomorrow was a fantastic movie.
Won’t give anything away from the plot but I laughed and cried listening to this tale.

Wow

A clever take on a familiar sci-fi trope, with a charming central character. No wasted words in this fast and furious, action packed novella.
The characters are well drawn, with more depth to them than I first expected to see.
Very nicely narrated, by a reader who, gets,” it and goes for it, so to speak.
Very different from the movie in many respects, though the core and heart are still here, likely to win over the film’s fans.
A fine example of its genre, doing exactly what it says on the tin.
For sci-fi fans, what’s not to love?

Cleverly Unsentimental Sentimentality

Normally when I have read the book a film was based on I've been amazed at the extra detail, but as this was originally a graphic novel there isn't much detail. It's as if this book is a summery of the full book!

not as good as the film
