The Collapsing Empire

As my regular readers know, I'm not a big fan of space opera, but this one blew me away. If anyone was going to do it, it would be Scalzi. His humor and his excellent dialogue made this a really enjoyable read for me. As with most of his works that I've read, the science is a little soft but his ideas are interesting. He doesn't write great prose, and the world building could be better, but his breakneck pacing and easy readability made for a stunning story.
