Review of 'Lost Mission' on 'Goodreads'

This was interesting. While it is definitely influenced by the last 2 decades of scifi, it tells a good story and is definitely recommended.
Am looking forward to reading the rest

Review of 'Beautiful Thing That Awaits Us All' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
These were pretty good. Cosmic horror in my opinion.
I feel like I've read one or two of these before in another anthology, but they were worth reading again.
Would recommend.

Review of 'Hell Fleet : a Science Fiction Adventure of Fire and Blood and Fury' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This was pretty good. Told from the perspective of a new set of characters, but the original cast does make an appearance.
Much more on space strategy than the previous which was a fun change of pace.
Need more in the series...

So I have really enjoyed most everything by Scalzi. But this one just didn't do it for me.
It felt like it meandered till about halfway through and then just rushed to tie everything together, having characters make choices that just seemed odd.
I do, however, hope for more stories in this universe as the premise was good, and I liked the previous two books a lot.

Probably the best middle book in a series that I've read in a while. Looking forward to the next one.

Quite hilarious parody. Definitely recommended.
Review of 'Out of the Soylent Planet (Starship Grifters)' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This was a silly book with ridiculous leaps in plot and logic, giant plot holes, and heavy handed parody.
I haven't laughed this hard at a scifi book since Hitchhikers Guide.
5 stars!
Review of 'Obscura' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
I really enjoyed this one. While parts of it felt rushed, it ties up nicely. Suitably unsettling and surprising.
Definitely recommended.
