    Some of the most well written Sf I read in a while
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2017*

Everybody seems to be writing series these days. It's a marketing thing I'm told.Scalzi is one is one of the best at it that I've seen since the 1950s and1960s (when I was a less sophisticated reader).His story and series arcs are coherent, plausible and intriguing with realistic, empathic characters. His thematic arcs teach very positive human values about family, loyalty, love, self-sacrifice and the power of individuals to change history.He avoids the trap of demonizing enemys. Most importantly he shows the the power of the merciful side of the warriors Ethos to end wars and avoid genocide. I believe that he rightfully ascribes that ethos to totally alien military leaders.In all Scalzi gives us a delightful space opera-ish tale that deftly critiques common human failures, the realistic limitations of the 'assumed' omniscience of powerful people, and the ability of 'ordinary' people, who dare to act, to avert apparently inevitable disaster.I highly recommend, and look forward to his future work.

    Probably should've just been combined with Zoe's Tale
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2021*

It got off to a slow start, but Scalzi's humor kept me interested. I enjoyed the plot and the characters. I couldn't put it down and raced the clock each night to finish a chapter before bed.Since it's told from the first person POV of the protagonist, we miss out on what other characters are up to. So maybe "Zoe's Tale" wasn't an afterthought but intentional.The name of the colony is Roanoke. It's been over 400 years since the original colony of Roanoke was lost. I don't know how far in the future the novel takes place (I suspect about a century), but I found it surprising that no characters raised a red flag over the name until about 70 pages in. Surely if enough of us still remember the original Roanoke now another 100 years won't see it completely drop out of our collective consciousness. I get it though. Scalzi dangled that tid bit for us readers, not the characters.Despite that nitpick, I enjoyed the book.

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2017*

Nice pivot in this third book away from the mostly military point of view, and toward the life of colonists.  Of course, with John Perry and Jane Sagan, there are military intrigues and strategy to divine, but seeing them both settled and happy (about eight years out of the CDF) is a nice change of pace and gives them both fuller life.  The book itself moves quickly, with some familiar characters returning and new characters (and species) introduced, more layers of the workings of the galaxy uncovered, and momentous decisions to be made.  The book ends with some aspects enjoying closure, but a major cliffhanger (in the best sense).  Curious where the series will end up, but Scalzi always makes the reader's journey enjoyable.
