The Ghost Brigades by John Scalzi

My review of The Ghost Brigades by John Scalzi is over at FBS here. I’ve previously posted reviews of Old Man’s War and The Android’s Dream there as well. This book is pretty much exactly what I have come to expect from Scalzi – a good, fun, quick read. 7/10

I’ve got an ARC of The Lost Colony waiting to be read for them as well – I’ll get to it soon.

Old Man’s War by John Scalzi

My review of Old Man’s War by John Scalzi is up over at Fantasybookspot. I enjoyed this book – it was a fun and entertaining read, which is what I’ve come to expect now that I’ve read this and The Android’s Dream. It lacks the philosophical punch of something like Starship Troopers or The Forever War, but does entertain. 7/10
