What starts off as a strong followup to Hard Contact bogs itself down in Mandalorian worship and a few "convenient" plot devices. It does offer a continued alternate view of the Star Wars universe, from the viewpoint of clone troopers, and delivers some good military sci-fi plotting and action.

A fun foray into the world of serialized fiction. It added to the Old Man's War world in largely entertaining ways. My only complaints are a few weak chapters that feel a bit removed from the rest of the book, and the cliffhanger ending that points to a "season two" or sequel book. I felt a bit cheated at that, but Scalzi apologized and I'm looking forward to more stories.
