[Old Man's War 6.10] • The Life of the Mind

**Part one of the four parts of the full-length novel, *The End of All Things** *.

A down-on-his-luck Colonial Union starship pilot finds himself pressed into serving a harsh master-in a mission against the CU. But his kidnappers may have underestimated his knowledge of the ship that they have, quite literally, bound him to piloting. *The End of All Things* is John Scalzi's conclusion to the Old Man's War tale that began with *The Human Division*.
