The Last Colony

3rd after Old Man's War and Ghost Brigades. Good character insight, though at times Perry gets a little Mary Sue-ish.

Old Man's War

If you liked the flavor of Starship Troopers, you'll love this.

The Ghost Brigades

Excellent follow-up to OMW. From a completely new point of view, same great style. Keeps you sucked in until the very end.

The Ghost Brigades

Scalzi's visions of Humans competing for their place in the universe continue. Strong, sharp writing that continues to feel right up there with Heinlein or Bova.
