This is the only book that has made me cry. I cried when Ender died, (although he didn't die his aiua passed on to Peter) the character of Ender died. Through the series I have gotten so attatched to his character unlike any other character in...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Jul 31, 2008 Type: User Review Things kind of got crazy...


...and the thread of the story seems to just run further away from the original concepts. Wasn't thrilled with the new ideas expressed in it and wouldn't recommend it as a good read.

In Children of the Mind, Orson Scott Card wraps up the Ender's Gamer series. That's what this book is basically for. Ender's Game and Speaker for the Dead can stand on their own but Xenocide (the third book) and Children are for those who...

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Jan 03, 2009 Type: User Review I Never Knew Court Rooms Could Be So Intense

This is a wonderful addition to the Alvin Maker tales. It is about his trial when Makepeace accuses him of stealing "his" plow. With many schemes, conspiracies, and deceiving, this book is wonderful. I never thought that a good book could be...

From: Posted: Jan 19, 2009 Type: User Review entertaining historical fantasy

Entertaining historical fantasy. Orson Scott Card obviously put a lot of thought to the alternative historical events not even depicted in the book. This is the most action packed volume in the series.

Dull, mormon wish fulfillment just fantasy. Card may have come up with some clever and complex science fiction, but he has also accomplished some terribly turgid fantasy. A suggestion and loaned from a friend, the stinking rotter. :)

Hart's Hope isn't your typical Card novel. He keeps the philosophy to a minimum, choosing instead to tell a story.

It's not a great story. It's decent. It's all a little weird.
