Pan Macmillan Old Man's War

THE UNIVERSE IS A DANGEROUS PLACE At seventy-five years old, John Perry is after a fresh start - so naturally, he joins the army. Earth's military machine can transform its elderly recruits, restoring their lost youth. But in return, its Colonial Defence Force demands two years of hazardous service in space. This is how Perry finds himself in a new body, crafted from his original DNA. It's also genetically enhanced and upgraded for battle. But upgrades alone won't keep Perry safe. He'll be fighting for his life on the frontlines, as he defends humanity's colonies from hostile aliens. He'll pay the price for his choices, and he'll discover the universe is even more dangerous than he imagined.
