Just finished Scalzi's Zoe's Tale. I don't think it was pushed as YA scifi, but it certainly has all the attributes imesho. Also, finally got around to reading The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick. Rather amazing artwork.

I read Scalzi's Zoe's Tale. It's categorized as Scifi, but really there's not much 'sci'. Fun read though.

Finished Zoe's Tale, moved on to The Android's Dream and finished it. Now I'm working on The Gathering Storm. I liked the sarcastic, dry wit from Zoe's Tale that was missing from The Last Colony. The Android's Dream was a lot of fun to read (although my significant other was less ...

Earlier this week I finished Zoe's Tale (B). Between moving and vacation I'm behind; it's easier for me to pick and put down non-fiction. For this coming month I have a small stack of Michael Moorcock novels that a friend lent me to read.

Finished since July 5, roughly from worst to best The ten thousand Zoe's tale Excession The sirens of Titan Ender's game Elantris Now reading Principles of angels Still reading Doubt: a history. Finished reading the first eight chapters and it's still amazingly dense. ...

... has caught up with the book in places. Beggars in Spain so far feels a bit like another book I recently read, Scalzi's Zoe's Tale - in style and tone, they are both fast-paced easy reads with a focus on the characters. EDIT - I just reread my last sentance and have to laugh - ANYTHING ...

#30: rosje: Just started The Last Colony after reading the first two. Good to hear your positive reaction. Zoe's Tale apparently is the next one.

Finished Neuromancer (sadly unimpressed), sweeping through Zoe's Tale (40 pages in and I'm enjoying it immensely) before I start on Beggars in Spain for the group read. I think Scalzi is maybe a little bit like candy.

... I enjoyed the first two, Old Man's War and The Ghost Brigades, and have been reading good things on LT about the 4th, Zoe's Tale.

... Ghost Brigades and The Last Colony for the first time (both really great!), although I'm still waiting for my copy of Zoe's Tale to come in. Now I've just started Neuromancer, since my Beggars in Spain hasn't shown up yet for the group read (I requested both of them when they were ...

Recently finished Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi, fitting conclusion to the Old Man's War series. Now reading Eyes of the Calculor by Sean McMullen, and being blown away again by his inventiveness and world-building. Methinks the Greatwinter trilogy isn't as well known as it ...

#30: ZOE'S TALE by John Scalzi Unlike the other Old Man's War novels, this is not a standalone -- you need to have read The Ghost Brigades and The Last Colony at least. This is Zoe Boutin-Perry's perspective on the events in those two books. A good tie-in with The Last Colony, a ...

Currently reading Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi, in my current stack of library books that includes Eyes of the Calculor, Majestrum and John Howe's Fantasy Art Workshop. This will be my last batch of novels, because I'm starting a reading challenge, to read as many graphic novels and ...

... A beautiful, poignant memoir of human life amidst birds and nature. Highly recommended! Currently reading Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi, which definitely won't make this round of SF Group Reads...

well i enjoyed old man's war a good deal, so i cast a losing vote for Zoe's Tale.

... of Mars (H. M. Hoover) Witch World (Andre Norton) Yanked (Nancy Kress) Z for Zachariah (Robert C. O’Brien) Zoe's Tale (John Scalzi)

*nudges bobmcconnaughey and whispers* Vote for Zoe's Tale or Majestrum! ;) Either one should have all your criteria... although it's worth reading Scalzi's previous novels before one tackles Zoe's Tale. *grin*

... (William Nicholson) The Winds of Mars (H. M. Hoover) Yanked (Nancy Kress) Z for Zachariah (Robert C. O’Brien) Zoe's Tale (John Scalzi) (Bah, touchstones! They're in there - WORK!)

59/60 Zoe's Tale is totally fine as a standalone. John Scalzi wrote it with that intention and I think he succeeded, as I hadn't read any of his other work when I read Zoe's Tale.

#59 thekoolaidmom: I don't know if Zoe's War is OK as a standalone. I haven't read it yet. The books in the series are: The Old Man's War The Ghost Brigades The Last Colony Zoe's War The previous 3 are all out in mmpb for about $7-$8 each.

#58 FicusFan: I still have Zoe's War on my ARC pile (bad me, I know), but I never new it was part of a series of books, especially a fourth book. Not sure I want to read it now, since I haven't read the others. Is it good as a stand alone?

I'm currently reading Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi and so far it's looking young adult suitable, maybe even aimed at the YA market. Another book I read that I think would be fun for a young adult who's not afraid of a little quantum physics talk, would be Thrice Upon a Time by James P. Hogan. ...

I'm belatedly reading Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi, which I got as an ER book. I would have read it sooner, but class reading really bogged me done for a bit. I'm not big on teen tales, but so far this one is ok. I didn't read Old Man's War which I understand is another tale about the same ...

Fantastic. bluesalamanders in The Green Dragon : Another GD request: Recent releases (Aug 31, 2008, 8:04pm)

Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi Science fiction, released this month. It is in the Old Man's War world of his previous books, but is a stand-alone, and it is an excellent book. I can't guess if it will be read in 10 years time, but I certainly hope so.

#126 DevourerofBooks - I loved Zoe's Tale too even though I'm also not partial to SF. Great minds, eh? Reading all the comments, I am probably the only person who actively disliked One More Year. Bleh. To tell the truth, I couldn't even finish it. It's only the second book I've ...

I finished When We Were Romans yesterday, and couldn't decide between Zoe's Tale... DoB's glowing about it and she was right about Gargoyle... or Confessions of a Contractor. Well, sex and fun won out. I started Contractor last night. :-D

... a woman who'd made that mistake. It's a fun read... but it came off the top and not the bottom. I was going to pick Zoe's Tale on the emphatic reco from DevourerofBooks (she was right about Gargoyle after all), but Contractor just seemed like more fun. I'll read Zoe next. ...

Okay, I LOVED John Scalzi's Zoe's Tale, and I don't even like Science Fiction. My review isn't going up until Wednesday, but I thought it was fantastic. I may actually have to read more of his stuff (I added a bunch to my bookmooch wishlist). I also enjoyed Eric Van Lustbader's Fir ...

... to work in the nursery at church this morning but no kids showed up. I was a bit worried, because I knew I had left Zoe's Tale at home. Luckily, though, I found American Savior in my purse. The beginning is a little off-putting, but I think I'll love it.

I'm about 1/3 of the way through Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi and I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would (science fiction isn't one of my favorite genres). I'm hoping I can finish it (or nearly finish) it today.

DoB: I've got Zoe's Tale on mine still, but I'm afraid to get anything off the bottom for fear of an ARC-alanche!

I'm FINALLY starting Zoe's Tale, which I've had forever, to get it read before the release date.

I just finished up Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi. It was great mindless fun like the rest of Scalzi's books. It was entertaining and a fast read, but there are only really light science fiction elements in it. The dialogue is great though! Overall, it was an enjoyable read.

... Bakker creates for the different races, is the best I've ever seen in a fantasy novel. Next up is John Scalzi's Zoe's Tale, which I hope is as fun and entertaining as his previous books.

pstotts - I'm glad to hear that about Zoe's Tale. I have that ARC as well. I'm not familiar with Scalzi's work and the cover of that book isn't so inviting. However, if it is entertaining, light and fun, I'll give it a go.

I received the ARC of Zoe's Tale by John Scalzi today. I've read about half of it so far, and it is as entertaining, light and fun as his previous novels.

I finished Zoe's Tale and really enjoyed it. I don't like very much SF, but the author captured a teenage girl's voice quite well (having a teenage girl in the house to compare to). Now if I could only figure out why it got sent to me! I don't remember asking for it from any source. The Fa ...

Yup, Zoe's Tale it is. Almost finished, too. Will start The Far Traveler: voyages of a Viking woman by Nancy Marie Brown next.

Another 4 in the mail today. 1 ARC that I forgot I requested: Zoe's Tale 3 from BookMooch from a generous LTer: Snow Flower and the Secret Fan The Wednesday Sisters Farewell My Queen

I received Zoe's Tale this past weekend, as well, and just received a notice from HarperCollins FirstLook that I wasn't selected to review a book that I don't remember requesting. I thought that I had requested a different book this month. **shrugs**

I got my Howard Smith's I, Robot yesterday, as well as Zoe's Tale... I thought of my dad right away, too, lenoreva.
