Often the reading of fiction can all be like studying a technical manual full of veiled board, abstract concepts and blunt-cutting technologies, but without including a really good story. Furthermore, the prose is heavy and dense and covered with infodumps. In point is all that John Scalzi's novels are not. Scalzi writes science fiction for people who do not usually read novels, and science does not even know how toMagic of quantum physics. His books are fun, easy to read, like Little Fluffy sweet balls Space Opera.
His latest novel "Zoe's Tale," which in its war of Old Man's Universe, is trendy, sassy, full of humor and just very funny. If half the authors are people who have been so he could write funny, life would only improve.
Zoe Boutin-Perry is the adopted daughter of fifteen years, Jane, and tell John Perry. Jane and John are recorded inColonial Union to find and serve as leaders of the new colony of Roanoke. Immediately there is bad and Roanoke is the conclave Mass, threatened by a consortium of four separate alien races. In order to prevent attacks by the conclave, the colony technologically isolated from the rest of the universe.
Before his death, the biological father of a technological innovation that Zoe was awarded an intelligent alien race called the Obin, which develops in them a sense ofConsciousness. Worship of the gift of his father to them about a holy fervor have treated the Obin by Zoe as their God Additionally, Zoe serves as the ship, the conscience of the record by intuition Obin address the complexity of their new acquisition of conscious thought.
Soon the colony is removed, the insulation, only to discover that a greater threat awaits them. I'm just a pawn in a lot more recklessly moved by political forces. Zoe is finallyto use all their ingenuity and wit to save the colony, their parents and friends. Eventually she is forced to make difficult moral choices to ensure the survival of all.
Scalzi has a gift for writing engaging characters, which gives most of their jokes. In fact, almost all of his human characters, witty jokes it off. The aliens are much less smooth. (Audacity is likely an intrinsic human quality.) Although this isenormously funny, not realistic and believable, and converts all characters in emotionally and intellectually sound like. Not that this criticism is great, it just means that the story and characters in the direction of entertainment of the reader are aligned. It would be a pity if the reader is not entertained.
"Zoe's Tale" is like a big summer blockbuster, a wild ride full of emotions-of-your-life, full-tilt excitement that gets the adrenal gland pumps.There will be a lot of fun and entertainment at the moment, but probably not much of it after its conclusion. But it's worth the trip.
Last word:
John Scalzi has a different stimulus-ride of a novel, accumulate a large bowl, Space Opera kindness, a smile on your face and made fun of your intestines. If you are looking for some quick, fun look easy, "Zoe's Tale," will definitely fit the bill.
