It's a prestige posting, with the chance to serve on Away Missions alongside the starship's famous senior officers. <p/>Life couldn't be better...until Andrew begins to realize that 1) every Away Mission involves a lethal confrontation with alien forces, 2) the ship's senior officers always survive these confrontations, and 3) sadly, at least one low-ranking crew member is invariably killed. Unsurprisingly, the savvier crew members below decks avoid Away Missions at all costs. <p/>Then Andrew stumbles on information that transforms his and his colleagues' understanding of what the starship <i>Intrepid</i> really is...and offers them a crazy, high-risk chance to save their own lives. <p/><i>Redshirts</i> by John Scalzi is the winner of the 2013 Hugo Award for Best Novel. <p/><b>Old Man's War Series</b><br> #1 <i>Old Man's War</i><br> #2 <i>The Ghost Brigades</i><br> #3 <i>The Last Colony</i><br> #4 <i>Zoe's Tale</i><br> #5 <i>The Human Division</i><br> #6 <i>The End of All Things </i><br> Short fiction: "After the Coup" <p/> <b>Other Tor Books</b><br> <i>The Android's Dream</i><br> <i>Agent to the Stars</i><br> <i>Your Hate Mail Will Be Graded</i><br> <i>Fuzzy Nation</i><br> <i>Redshirts</i><br> <i>Lock In</i><br> <i>The Collapsing Empire</i> (forthcoming)</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"John Scalzi sets his imagination to STUN and scores a direct hit.
