I finished the first two books in the Collapsing Empire series by Scalzi, narrated by Will Wheaton. I might be alone in finding Wheaton generally irritating/overrated but he grew on me about 25% of the way through book 1. The series itself is pretty great, I have to say. Excited for the 3rd book.

I picked up Scalzi's Redshirts next, also Wheaton narrating. Man, there is a lot of He Saids and She Saids in the narration. Like, a distracting amount. It was his first book I believe, and I'm glad he'd moved away from that by the time of the Collapsing Empire. If I was Wheaton it would have driven me crazy narrating this.
