Goody good goodness! The last volume in the Old Man’s War Trilogy, The Last Colony has arrived in my mailbox. It was released in Europe on Friday, sent to me on Thursday, and it arrived today! Huge kudos and much love goes out from me to you, the Amazon corporation. I can’t think of a single Norwegian website that could offer such great services as you. I am from now on a faithful devotee, and promise to buy books online only from you.

John Scalzi novels have a certain x-factor that makes them completely impossible to put down once you’ve turned the first page. I have an important paper due on Wednesday, so until that time arrives that I know I’m going to be able to hand it in, I’m hiding The Last Colony somewhere out of sight.

It beckons me… Calls to me. The blue cover begs to be fondled with… What did it say? Do you contain chapters made simply out Fun Fun Fun? Can I read them?

No… I must stay strong. Resist the temptation, Lotta. Cleanse your mind…

Come to the dark side!

Uh-oh…
