The Last Colony by John Scalzi

Let me tell you of the worlds I've left behind.

John Scalzi is one of my fave sci-fi authors and this third book in his Old Man‘s War series didn‘t disappoint. The story has shifted from military sci-fi to a colony so it‘s a quieter tale but it still has all the things I like - politics, wry humour, and a love for humanity tempered with a distrust of organizations.

Recommended For: Anyone who likes sci-fi that's more about humans than space battles.

Read On: The next book in the Old Man's War series is Zoe's Tale. Another sci-fi that focuses on space colonists is Semiosis by Sue Burke. I can also highly recommend Scalzi's Interdependency series - the first book is The Collapsing Empire.
