Jason Furman's Reviews > The Ghost Brigades

I listened to this audiobook with my son (I read the first book a while ago, he just read it). I quite liked it--a good suspenseful plot, some interesting characters, great world building (people can shift their consciousness into new bodies, a manageable set of intragalatic fights and alliances between different species, etc.). None of the writing was particularly spectacular, John Scalzi gets much better with later books (particularly The Collapsing Empire trilogy), but it was enjoyable.
