A while back I posted on my somewhat mixed response to an Eric Flint

I just read _Old Man's War_. Scalsi also succeeds in getting the desired
emotional reactions. But for some reason, perhaps superior subtlety, he
does it in a way that doesn't bother me. An impressive book.

For people who seach by author, that's Scalzi with a zed.
