The military SF sequel to his extraordinary Old Man's War, John Scalzi's The Ghost Brigades is the second in The Old Man's War series.
Who can you trust, if you can't trust yourself?
Three hostile alien races have united against humanity, determined to halt our expansion into space. The mastermind behind this lethal alliance is a traitor - Charles Boutin. He was a Colonial Defence Force scientist, with access to their biggest military secrets. Now the CDF's only hope is to discover Boutin's plan. Trouble is, Boutin's dead.
As a super-soldier created from Boutin's own DNA, Jared Dirac may have answers. However, when Dirac fails to access the scientist's memories, he's transferred to the Ghost Brigades for training. These elite troops are also cloned from the dead, so he might fit in. But will Dirac's memory return as the enemy plots the fate of humankind? And whose side is Dirac really on?
Continue the gripping space war series with The Last Colony.

This story, second in the series; is honestly pretty damn good. Following the creation of a special service soldier, the training, day to day life and equally exciting as horrible missions he takes part in.If you enjoy a grounded sci-fi military setting with believeable characters I reccomend this series.

Känns lite som ett mellanspel som bygger upp för nästa bok. Hoppas mer på nästa del.

Väldigt bra bok, som ibland tappar farten i lite alltför långa utläggningar.

Jag hade höga förväntningar efter första boken som var helt fantastisk. Den här känns som ett försök att skriva en actionfilm åt Hollywood. Floskler och klichéer, såsiga one-liners. Den är förutsägbar, inte alls lika humoristisk som ettan och det är som att författaren tappat sitt underbara språk. Hoppas han hittar det igen i tredje boken.Uppläsaren räddar mycket av upplevelsen, han är lysande!
