Redshirts by John Scalzi
4.0
Very fun & enjoyable
I am very glad I read this after unfinished all of Star Trek: The Original Series! It made everything much more meaningfully funny, and Scalzi did a great job capturing the feel of the Redshirts from that series- and the feel of the often ridiculous science! The plot here was overall quite good - it lost a star for me just because I really didn't understand the last conversation between Andy & Jimmy and the implications of it. The three codas were a particularly nice touch, providing some extra closure on the whole book. Definitely recommend!
