More good stuff from John Scalzi

Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an easy one.

I like John Scalzi's writing. Just in general. He's got a sound, a patter, that is recognizably his, and he doesn't screw it up.

This is a good story, with a proven plot, good pacing, sympathetic and interesting characters, and (as always) clever dialogue.

It was interesting to read the same story as the previous novel told from a different POV. It wasn't, of course, the same story, but something new. I liked it.

(Only quibble--what do the aliens look like? Come on! Not every species, but a few, please! Anyway...)

Five stars, of course.

So, read the book already. Off you go. :)
