November 2010: Orson Scott Card: Ender's Game

[Brad Stevens]

Orson Scott Card belongs in a very small category of authors whom I find so thoroughly vile and repulsive as individuals that I could never bring myself to actually read their work:

The Hypocrites of Homosexuality - Orson Scott Card

Usually, I don't know much about authors and only look them up if I really, really like them. So, Card's personal beliefs never entered into the Read or not to read equation.

 

[triggrhaapi]

Agreed. Anyway, if you read the Shadow series, it would be plainly obvious that he is a nut.

 

[JAJackson]

I enjoyed the series. It was a different view of our future compared to many.

 

[Roxbrough]

I read this years ago, but remember thinking at the time that it is not a patch on, 'A Planet Called Treason'.
As I own both I think I may re-read them and see if I still feel the same way.
