Review # 1 was written on 2008-08-11 00:00:00 Rob Stein 6.0 stars. One of my All time favorite novels. I am a big Orson Scott Card fan and this is my favorite book of his (Speaker for the Dead is second and Ender's Game is third). This is an emotionally devastating novel that will leave you thinking about it long after the book is done. Card himself calls this his best writing ever and I completely agree. It is a very "dark" fantasy so don't go into this looking for a "feel good" book. That said, this is an amazing piece of writing that I think gets even better upon its second reading. HIGHEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION!!!

Review # 2 was written on 2007-06-25 00:00:00 Joshua Padillo This book defies description. It must be one of the most underrated books in its genre, because it is so great I can't understand why it's not more well-known. As may be apparent from my book list, I'm a big fan of fantasy, but I'm also extremely picky and can't abide the Xena Warrior Princess nonsense that is so abundant on fantasy shelves. Orson Scott Card is just shy of Tolkien greatness. I love that this book doesn't hold your hand. You have to immerse yourself in the language and live with it a little before you start to understand it, and then it consumes you.
