Zoe's Tale - John Scalzi

4/5 -

Rehash of what happened in Scalzi's Last Colony told from the girl's perspective, Zoe. She's quick witted like her adoptive father. Daughter of the guy who brought the Obin aliens conscience so they revere her and protect her.

Planet gets bombed - the Conclave (aliens) are looking to kill the colony off. Humans are using planet as a pawn to rally support against the conclave. Zoe goes to conclave leader to tell about an assassination attempt. Then gets obin to bring the smart aliens around so she can get an uber weapon from them. They take it back to the planet and save themselves from the rogue segement of the conclave and are then promised they'll never be attacked again. John, Jane, and Zoe then have to leave... where to next?
