How do you tell your part in the biggest tale in history?
I ask because it's what I have to do. I'm Zoe Boutin Perry: A colonist stranded on a deadly pioneer world. Holy icon to a race of aliens. A player (and a pawn) in a interstellar chess match to save humanity, or to see it fall. Witness to history. Friend. Daughter. Human. Seventeen years old.
Everyone on Earth knows the tale I am part of. But you don't know my tale: How I did what I did ― how I did what I had to do ― not just to stay alive but to keep you alive, too. All of you. I'm going to tell it to you now, the only way I know how: not straight but true, the whole thing, to try to make you feel what I felt: the joy and terror and uncertainty, panic …

I'm going to tell it to you now, the only way I know how: not straight but true, the whole thing, to try to make you feel what I felt: the joy and terror and uncertainty, panic and wonder, despair and hope. Everything that happened, bringing us to Earth, and Earth out of its captivity. All through my eyes.
It's a story you know. But you don't know it all.
it was okay. the author even wrote in the acknowledgments at the end it is a difficult task
in my view, he partially succeeded. probably because we know too much from the other books (mostly last colony). the novel could have been extra chapters there
not boring, not uninteresting, but a grade lower than the others
the author mentions ender's_shadow as the same kind of book. let's see if card does it better
No empecé muy contento con el libro pero he de admitir que me sorprendió todo lo que quedaba por contar en The Last Colony desde el punto de vista de Zoe.
