Another good Kate Shugak story. Perhaps not as gripping as some in this series, but still a good read.

Once again Scalzi serves up some off-kilter SF humor.

Far from his best work, but still fun.

Brilliant! 👍😊

I had read Shards of Honor years ago and quite enjoyed it, but I hadn't realized I needed to read Barrayar to complete the story. What a wonderful MC Cordelia Naismith is -- resolute and heroic she is, but her super power is her ability to inspire those around her.

Not Scalzi's best work IMO, but still a fun read. Wil Wheaton's audio narration is as usual excellent.

One of the best memoirs to come out of Big2. With detailed descriptions, documents, and photos, it tells the story of six very hard days in the summer of 1944.

The definitive work on Richard Feynman. Covers not only Feynman's life and work but also gives mini-biographies of most of the important people in his life.

There is dirty dealing in high places and Kate's grandmother calls her in to help out. The dirty dealers think Kate is a minor nuisance. Wrong they are. Bottom line – it is a really bad idea to get Kate Shugak pissed off at you.

Fairly good story, but not as good as Cornwell's earlier books. I hope she isn't losing her mojo.

Dipped, Stripped, and Dead is a quite enjoyable mystery with a nice twist. I plan read the rest of Elise Hyatt's mysteries.
(Note: Elise Hyatt is a pseudonym that Sarah A. Hoyt uses for cozy mysteries.)

Good SF with a heavy romance sub-theme.
What do we have here: Alien invasion, check; human vs human war, check; dastardly dark treachery, check; high-tech hi-jinks, check; spy/covert ops action, check; star-crossed lovers, check. What's not to like?
I will read the rest of the series.
