reviewed The Last Colony by John Scalzi (Old Man's War, #3)

Not as great as the two preceeding books, but still excellent

Honestly right about here and book 4 was when the series started to stall a bit for me. It never stalled so bad I didn't want to keep reading, but right after this the books sort of reinvent themselves and go a different direction with people who had been side characters, or only appeared in shorts. Still, it's a great introduction to the conflict that gets solved in the conclusion of the series.

.

Doctena treti cast, ktera to pekne uzavira. Pozdeji dopsany dily prozatim vynechavam.

Kazdej z dilu byl typove/stylem uplne jinej, v kazdym pripade trojka bez predchozich dvou nedava moc smysl, naopak to vse hezky uzavira (toz uz sem psal, ze :-P)

Jako ve vsech dilech neni vse jak se zda, spousta zamlcenych informaci a vlada manipulujici svyma oveckama, ochotna klidne obetovat celou jednu planetu, proc ne. Jako fajn, konec mne uprimne dojal, az sem musel vytahnout kapesnicek. V poho cteni za 70%.
