Are there any other good philosophical fiction books like starship troopers? Doesn't have to be Sci-Fi.
Of course there are.

Can't find anything, tried Old Man's war, it sucked.

Most literature is 'philosophical'
The Dispossessed - Le Guin
The Forever War - Haldeman
The Death of Ivan Illych - Leo Tolstoy
Wasn't starship troopers intended to be serious but came out a joke?
Starship Troopers is so blunt about everything
