I like Scalzi's blogging and Twitter feed very much, so it took me several tries to admit to myself that his books just leave me... meh. You're right, he pulls his punches and that can be fine if one is in the right mood for it. Mostly it frustrates me. Because I keep having the feeling that he's capable of something a lot more powerful, but just doesn't feel like digging that deep.
