Book Reviews of Zoe's TaleBook Review: Great "shadow" take on the "The Last Colony" Summary: 5 Stars
Scalzi gives props to Card for this "shadow" version of "The Lost Colony" in his "Old Man's War" series. It's told from the POV of the adopted daughter of the protagonist. If you've read "The Lost Colony," you know the beats of the story, but you get a whole new perspective. For a middle-age guy, Scalzi sure writes a good teen girl.
Book Review: Outstanding parallel tale Summary: 5 Stars
Zoe's Tale is a retelling of The Last Colony from Zoe's perspective, adding a fair amount of additional detail. Zoe's snarky attitude keep the overall tone light. But as Zoe's character develops she becomes quite the young woman. It is self-contained enough that it could be enjoyed by someone who hadn't read the prior trilogy.
Book Review: Obin Goddess Summary: 4 Stars
An insightful tale that fill's in many of the blanks fo the previous books. It further explains the Obin's total devoition to Zoe and the price they are willing to pay the Consu for information. A nicely done addendum to the series.
Book Review: Loved it! Summary: 5 Stars
Loved the way this presented an almost completely different tale than the one presented in The Last Colony. It pulled me in pretty quickly and got me emotionally invested in Zoe's life. Another great novel from Scalzi!
Book Review: beautiful revisit Summary: 5 Stars
fot those who loved 'old man's war' and the books that followed, as did I, this book is a lovely revisit of parts of the story. I thought it would be redondant and resisted reading it but I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
