Zoe's Tale: An Old Man's War Novel Audiobook

" I loved the first half of this book and only liked the second half. I was impressed at how well Scalzi pulled off the teenage girl voice and my disappointment with the second half was mostly due to the fact that I found the plot less believable. Overall a fun read. "

" Made me laugh, made me cry. John Scalzi did it again. Zoe is not your typical teen, when she "wings" it, she scores. "

" I loved the story from zoe point of view. "

" Over all I like the book. Scalzi can do smart-ass really well. Toward the end, it would have been better told via a third person narrative instead of having it told with dialog. "

" This one gets 4 stars because it is the Old Man's War universe, which is a great place for stories told, but had the series started with this, I'm not sure I would have read any more. Would probably be a 3 if not full of the characters I love. "

" Not for me. Finished it, but..... coulda/shoulda been combined with the last colony. "

" Ender's Shadow with an angsty teenage girl playing Bean. "

" too much overlap with 'the last colony' for my taste; felt like he was milking the series a bit much "

" A rehash of Scalzi's other books. Entertaining but left me wishing he'd written something new. "

" When I bought this book, I wasn't expecting to be rereading "The Last Colony". Unfortunately, that's what this book is with about a 15% difference due to it being told via Zoe's viewpoint. Why charge me for a full book when this is what I got. Shame on the author. "

" Good book, I enjoyed reading Zoe's POV of the Lost Colony. I did not find this a YA book at all. Got to read more Scalzi! "

" couldn't finish it. Didn't realize it was the same story from a different perspective before i started, didn't really care for it. "

" My first Scalzi. It was wonderful. Funny and sharp, Scalzi knows how to craft a good story and his science is completely believable. I'm going back now to read his others. He does read like a Robert Heinlein for the younger crowd. Highly recommend. "

" It's the same book as Lost Colony, but retold from Zoe's view. There's a few new parts, and the details of what Zoe was up to were interesting, but it's still a little disappointing because realistically, you know exactly what's going to happen in the end. "

" Intergalactic warfare as narrated by a teenage girl with black belt in smartassery "

" The secret story behind the events told in The Last Colony. This story is told from the viewpoint of Zoe, the 15 yr old adopted daughter of John Perry and Jane Sagan. I actually liked this one better than The Last Colony. The teenagers interacting with each other was quite amusing. "

" Not up to the bar set by earlier books in the series but still loaded with Scalzi wit. "

" Different but interesting from a childs point of view. It was good. Another top ten of the last decade. "

" sorry, it is targeted towards teenagers...just not my type of book. "

" Probably because Scalzi was stretching to write in the persona of a teenage girl, the writing in this story was a bit more interesting. On the other hand, having very little in the way of new plot could have made it much less interesting, but didn't. "

" I loved his previous books in this series, but this one was pretty boring. I don't even remember if I finished reading it. "
