The Collapsing Empire by John Scalzi

The Collapsing Empire (The Interdependency #1)The Collapsing Empire by John Scalzi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Terrific - engaging and full of interesting ideas!

Scalzi leaps off into the unknown - a wholly different universe from his Old Man stories - and it's excellent. A far-future with the ersatz nobility familar to space opera from Honor Harrington to Vorrkosigan and he does it with his own inimitable style. The main downside is... I have to wait for the next volume.

The Star Wars by J.W. Rinzler

The Star WarsThe Star Wars by J.W. Rinzler
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Yikes!

Interesting historically. (a GREEN Han Solo?)
Good artwork.

Bizarre plot - all over the map.

Glad I read it - but man - we dodged a bullet here; grateful the Star Wars filmed... wasn't this...
