Wildcat colonies are illegal, unauthorized, and secret - so when an injured stranger shows up at the wildcat colony New Seattle, the colony leaders are understandably suspicious of who he is and what he represents. His story of how he’s come to their colony is shocking, surprising, and might have bigger consequences than anyone could have expected.

Walk the Plank is a tale from John Scalzi's The Human Division, a series of self-contained but interrelated short stories set in the Old Man's War universe.

Any additional comments?

I'm assuming this will tie in with the story at one point. A different group than were in the first short. I like to read these as a pallet cleanser in between books.

Will this tie in with the story?

Good start but it leaves you hanging, like it is supposed to. Dont know where it is going but eager for the next installment.

Any additional comments?

Even though it's less than 40 minutes long, it still had enough interest to make me feel invested in the characters and their survival.

Short But Interesting

This audiobook is not so much a book but a oral presentation of a screenplay. I was not impressed!!!

Not a fan of screenplays disguised as literature!
