Everyone on Earth knows the tale I am part of. But you don't know my tale: How
|
||
|
|
I did what I did — how I did what I had to do — not just to stay alive but to
|
||
|
|
keep you alive, too. All of you. I'm going to tell it to you now, the only way
|
||
|
|
I know how: not straight but true, the whole thing, to try make you feel what
|
||
|
|
I felt: the joy and terror and uncertainty, panic and wonder, despair and
|
||
|
|
hope. Everything that happened, bringing us to Earth, and Earth out of its
|
||
|
|
captivity. All through my eyes.</p>

<p>It's been awhile since I've read <em>The Last Colony</em> and, when I started reading
|
||
|
|
this book, I thought "I've already read this, but since I don't remember
|
||
|
|
everything, no damage in reading it again". And somethings were different, so
|
||
|
|
I thought "Well, my memory is not the same anymore, it seems." And when I
|
||
|
|
finally finished the book and read the author's commentary about it, I finally
|
||
|
|
realized I didn't read "Zoe's Tale". At all.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Instead of going forward with the tale of Old Man's War main protagonists,
|
||
|
|
Scalzi starts at the very start of "Last Colony" and tells the same story by
|
||
|
|
the eyes of another character, this time (wanna guess?) Zoe. Kinda like
|
||
|
|
[book:Shadow of the Giant|8647 (and its series), which follows Bean instead of
|
||
|
|
Ender.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>It's a fun book -- I still love the way Scalzi writes -- but if you try to
|
||
|
|
read after reading Last Colony, you may think you're reading the same thing
|
||
|
|
again.</p>
