Old Man's War

Read my son's book yesterday, finishing it this morning.  I gotta tell you:  it's good.  And it's not just prejudice, which of course I have.  I've always enjoyed science fiction novels.  I enjoyed this one as well.  I have only one complaint.  It ended too soon.

So this for my son, John Scalzi:  thanks, son.  And for all of you j-landers out there who haven't bothered to get a copy:  What's the holdup?  Go get it!  If you don't know where, ask John.

WoW, I didn't know John was your son!  Anyway, glad you enjoyed the book.  I might have to tell my husband to check it out as he's totally into sci-fi.

I'm not much for science fiction, but because John does so much to hold J-land together, I'll do my best to get his book.
