Joh Scalizi's writing is enjoyable as he tends to slip in entertaining and witty dialog. It makes me want to keep reading.

Thank you to NetGalley, Tor Publishing Group, and most especially John Scalzi for this eARC of the re-release of The Last Colony.

If you are a fan of any of Mr. Scalzi's other works or the works of Cory Doctorow, Seanan McGuire, Martha Wells, Travis Baldree, or any of their contemporaries, this series is for you! The third title in the Old Man's War series, The Last Colony returns readers to the lives of John Parry & Jane Sagan as they begin semi-retirement with an invitation (bordering on an order) to serve as the governors for humanity's first new colony in decades. Unfortunately, not all is as it seems and the lines between friend and foe begin to blur as the various galactic forces in Scalzi's universe vie for power and the inhabitants of their new colony squabble for independance & leadership.

It's a hell of a good time and a wonderful next chapter in the saga of Old Man's War - one of Scalzi's best creations!
