Book Review: The Lost Colony

Awesome book! Awesome series. The second book was good, but I couldn't get over the switched perspective. Book 1 and 3(this one) were in John Perry's pov and they were definately the best. The character of John Perry is so well written it didn't matter where Scalzi put him, I was engaged. Book One took place almost entirely in space with far out technology. This one was primarily on backward worlds with old tools. It was the writing, pacing and great characters that had me fly through the book. I must say I am really bummed when he wrote in his afterword that this would be the last book in this universe. By far my favorite book this year - even though he left one minor thread untied.
