I am really enjoying how Scalzi is mixing up the style with every episode. This week we get a murder mystery, the consequences of which could irreparably damage relations between Earth and the Colonial Union.Dialogue is an obvious strength of Scalzi's writing and we get plenty of witty banter here, especially between Harry and a woman from Earth who has been brought on board to observe the diplomatic process. Things are starting to come to a head now, pieces are moving into position, and I think the threat has just about been revealed. This big threat has been many years in the making, and the connections to John Perry are becoming harder to refute.
