![]() ![]() And for those who haven’t read Scalzi before-and if you haven’t, you should start with Old Man’s War-that means it is full of humour, particularly sarcasm and irony, of an irreverent variety, punctuated by lulls of intense, brooding seriousness. ![]() If I wanted to be lazy, I could say that this is typical Scalzi. Rather than worry or fret about these gaps, I just sat back and let John Scalzi’s writing persuade me. I couldn’t really recall who the Obin were, or who Zoë Boutin or her father Charles were, or why any of this mattered. I guess it’s a testament to my terrible memory (and the reason why I write these reviews) that I remembered almost nothing about either books when I started reading this one. ![]() It has been ages since I read The Ghost Brigade and over a year since I read The Human Division, which chronologically takes place after the events in The Last Colony but doesn’t spoil a lot of it. ![]()
