À propos de cet audio
Retired from his fighting days, John Perry is now village ombudsman for a human colony on distant Huckleberry. With his wife, former Special Forces warrior Jane Sagan, he farms several acres, adjudicates local disputes, and enjoys watching his adopted daughter grow up.
That is, until his and Jane's past reaches out to bring them back into the game — as leaders of a new human colony, to be peopled by settlers from all the major human worlds, for a deep political purpose that will put Perry and Sagan back in the thick of interstellar politics, betrayal, and war.
The highly anticipated conclusion to John Scalzi's SF trilogy begun with Old Man's War and The Ghost Brigades concludes with The Last Colony

Overly Dramatic
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
Characters become flat caricatures of their un-nuanced personalities. All the fascinating technology, world, and geo-politics are glazed over. By the end my eyes rolled off the page. The last sentence of the book is painfully predictable and clichéd that it made me put the series down.
Performance by the reader is great though.
Shallow and lacking

However, the reader of this title, who has read all the Old Man’s War titles so far, seems to be out of his depth; Scalzi’s dialogue has huge potential for nuance, but every time a character opens his or her mouth they end up sounding like an inch-deep caricature.
I find myself wishing the narrator of Scalzi’s Android’s Dream and Lock In books had been on board for this series. I’m excited to be listening to the ‘Last Colony’ alternate POV story ‘Zoe’s Tale’, with an absolutely captivating reader, which gives me hope for ‘The End of All Things’, also featuring the same artist.
Would I recommend it? Depends on how sensitive you are to the impact of the reader. I might suggest listening to more than just the sample before making up your mind, though!
Good book. Unimaginative reading.
