bluegills 's review for:

Starter Villain by John Scalzi
3.25
lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot

Very much at first a story of a man tugged along for the whims of the plot, instead of making his own decisions. Halfway through the book, some of his skills show up, but I was a little disappointed when the ending was just that he had been a part of a plot within a plot after all. Short, sweet, and simple.
