Really enjoyed this one & I'm looking forward to a continuation of the story. Also, my favorite way to "read" Scalzi is via audiobook & Wil Wheaton! It adds an extra oomph in enjoyment factor. ;)

I like Scalzi. He’s fast paced and interesting and the intrigue is fun. I’d read the second book in the series

This is exactly what I want from a Sci—Fi book. Great characters whose stories weave together so well. And interesting world with rich history, science, and religion. That’s all falling a part about to become something new. Can’t wait to continue the series.

Wil Wheaton and Scalzi in space. Good stuff!
Interesting world so far. Didn't realize it was the start of a series, so even better!
