I've now finished the second, and I'm curious to see whether I'll get through the third -- I'm already surprised by having finished the second one, which I suspect only happened because it was relatively short. I mean, overall I enjoyed the experience, but as I mentioned a couple of comments back I have a bad habit of dropping series in the second book, especially when they're doorstoppers. Anyway, my local library has the third, so I'll probably at least try it.
...it will probably rank above Lady Astronaut for me, as I've yet to get more than a couple of chapters into any of them. Lots of people seem to like the last book, even people who didn't like the first one, but I couldn't get very far into it either; there's something about her writing that sets my teeth on edge. And then there's, well, McGuire. I don't know anything about October Daye, and I did like Middlegame actually more than this Scalzi, so I suppose it could go either way.
