The Collapsing Empire by John Scalzi

adventurous emotional funny lighthearted tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

Really solid speedy read by Scalzi, who I am growing to enjoy more and more. I love the quippy, don't give a fuck, characters that fill his novels, the humor that is embedded everywhere, while also taking things like the potential collapse of the universe as his characters know it, seriously enough for the scope of the novel. I'll be looking forward to enjoying more of this series, and seeing what indeed happens with the Flow. 

I honestly have no idea what will happen next, which is thrilling!
