Nice review. Looking forward to this one!
Thanks! Have you read his other stuff by any chance?
Great review Alex. One day i'll get round to reading some of his work. I have had Old Man's war on my shelf for years.
Definitely read OMW before this one. Not that they're related, but I just think it's a better novel.
I tried Old Man's War but didn't get very far. The blurb for this sounds interesting though.
Great review, Alex!
"However, I never got quite invested enough to give it five stars. It was satisfying, but was missing a certain something to make me fall in love."
This is kind of how I feel about both Scalzi novels I've read (Old Man's War and Redshirts). Those two felt shallow, Redshirts more so than OMW. Redshirts came off totally lazy and uninspired to me. I like Scalzi as a person but not his work.
So now that the prequel is free, do I get my damn $2.99 back?
