Publisher's Summary
Hard-core military science fiction at its very best, John Scalzi's The Last Colony is the third in The Old Man's War series.
They must save themselves – or die trying.
John Perry was living peacefully on one of humanity's colonies – until he and his wife were offered an opportunity these ex-supersoldiers couldn't resist. To come out of retirement and lead a new frontier world.
However, once on the planet, they discover they've been betrayed. For this colony is a pawn in an interstellar game of war and diplomacy. Humanity's Colonial Union has pitched itself against a new, seemingly unstoppable alien alliance, dedicated to ending all human colonization.
As this contest rages above, Perry struggles to keep his terrified colonists alive on the surface below – despite dangerous interstellar politics, violence and treachery. And the planet has yet to reveal its own fatal secrets.

She said, Jane said. Zoe said he said. Too often. But a great story
I often knew who was speaking but this became really annoying at times…….

Beautiful
Amazing how each book in this series can be so different from each other yet equally so engaging.

Another entertaining book by John scalzi
Another entertaining science fiction book by John scalzi following the Old Man's War. I liked the well rounded characters in this one, although there was at least one plot hole I felt was left unresolved.

Slow start but excellent finish to the three books
This book lived up to my expectations following book 1. Really enjoyable read that started slowly but had an excellent and well structured finish.

Young adult cheese
I'm sorry but I can't think of a positive thing to say about any of the novels in this series let alone this warm puddle of a novel.
The story was so nauseating and predictable I physically could not bring myself to finish.
Unless you're in your early teens and have read all of the twilight series, and loved them, only then might you enjoy this book.
So bad I feel robbed
