The universe is a dangerous place for humanity—and it's about to become far more dangerous. Three races that humans have clashed with before have allied to halt our expansion into space. Their linchpin: the turncoat military scientist Charles Boutin, who knows the CDF's biggest military secrets. To prevail, the CDF must find out why Boutin did what he did. Jared Dirac is the only human who can provide answers—a superhuman hybrid, created from Boutin's DNA, Jared's brain should be able to access Boutin's electronic memories.

I do wish the different species were more developed and fleshed out. look to Iain Banks or V Vinge for what this story would have been like with chapters from the obin ( even them, if Vinge can do spiders..) and the Eneshan ( other than ch 1 and the one recurring character).
But, this held my interest, Scalzi is very good in his own right. I look forward to continuing the series.
