Hard-core, fast paced science fiction, John Scalzi's Zoe's Tale is the fourth in The Old Man's War series. She won't go down without a fight. It's not every day you up sticks and move to another world. But then, Zo??? Boutin-Perry's life has never been ordinary. She's the adopted teenage daughter of two former super-soldiers. She's also a holy icon to a race of alien warriors who track her every move. So she's used to the quirks of being a human in space. However, this time something's different. Betrayed by the authorities, Zo??? - along with her parents and fellow colonists - finds herself stranded on a deadly pioneer planet. The Colonial Union has also set them up as a target for hostile alien action. Zo??? must become a player (and a pawn) in an interstellar battle, which will determine the fate of humanity. Her father's side of this story was told in The Last Colony, but Zoe's Tale reveals a whole new dimension. It's a story you may think you know, but you don't really know it at all. Continue the gripping space war series with The Human Division. 'John Scalzi is the most entertaining, accessible writer working in SF today' - Joe Hill, author of The Fireman

Seller's Description:
Good in Good jacket. Hardcover First printing of the First Edition, published August 2008, in Good condition with a Good Dust Jacket protected by a Mylar Brodart. DJ art by John Harris.
The series started with "Old Man's War" and ultimately continues for a total of six books by this date, Oct 9, 2016. In the first book the author created a truly unique story line, and he has worked it successfully through all the succeeding books. His characterization is believable, and the characters are generally easily visualized, even the intelligent but weird space creatures. Snappy dialog. The overall setting is multi-galaxy wide, but the specific story lines are localized. The SciFi innovations are mainly in bio-adaptation, especially after the first book.
This book successfully concludes the arc started in the third book. Although many of the events are the same as in the third book, the perspective is very different, and there are a lot of background situations and neat little back-stories introduced with this volume. In fact, several act almost as plot twists from the predecessor. This book could be read by itself, but it will be best enjoyed if read in the order of the series.
