My library hold came in so I‘m starting one of your picks and the first line is quite intriguing!

At this point I pretty much love everything John Scalzi at this point. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ looking forward to continuing the series

John Perry joins the army when he turns 75. His desire to move on from the memories of his wife result in him joining the long, bloody fight to expand & protect humanity‘s place in space.

I can see why people like this. John is fun, the humor is on point, & the world building is amazing. But 300 pages of stop/go action, w/ everything going down in the last 50 pages + a last minute romance makes this more of a miss for me.🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑

I had high hopes for this one. Honestly I find this author's books to be misses in the series. So much potential to finally get the scoop on the emperor but he almost seems like a secondary character in this book. Also not a fan of this author's writing style.

Giving this a go after playing some Space Marine 2. Really want to dig into some Warhammer 40k lore. Enjoying it so far.

I read this book for my Summer Reading Challenge. I chose it for the Locus Winner: First Novel.
Despite being confused for the first several chapters, I did enjoy this book. I always struggle to wrap my brain around sci-fi novels. I enjoyed the story and the main characters. It gave me Cyberpunk 2077 vibes. That helped me understand more of what was happening. It was nice when things finally clicked.
I am looking forward to reading the sequel.
