Nice collection of stories set in the OLD MAN???S WAR universe. It continues the plot, so you don???t want to miss it. I listened to the audio version which was very good. You can each episode separately or all together.

This was a good continuation of the Old Man's War series. it's not easy to talk about this book with out spoiling it but suffice it to say the universe Scalzi builds in this series is incredibly detailed and unique. as I catch up to the current novel I find my self forcing my self to slow down so the wait between books isn't so long.

Read part of the story and listened to the audiobook for the rest. Scalzi sets the stage nicely. I'l looking forward to reading future episodes. Does this count as a book in my 2013 reading challenge?
