- squidsoup 16y agoAlso, if you love the book, it might pay to avoid reading anything about Orson Scott Card, particularly any recent interviews. I've let what he stands for as an individual colour my enjoyment of his novels, which is a pity as they're some of my favourite in the genre.
- edanm 16y agoI'm a huge fan of Orson Scott Card, so take the following with a grain of salt. Despite "recent interviews" which most people really disagree with, I still think almost all his fiction works are great. So if you liked Ender's Game, be sure to pick up other fiction books by him. I especially recommend "Songmaster" and "The Worthing Saga".
- esoteric 16y agoI remember reading something about him personally and tried to not let it taint my recent reading and then next year rereading of Ender's Game. I've forgotten what I was so upset about, thankfully, so I can still enjoy that and Speaker for the Dead for what they are. I don't often get really emotional when I read books anymore (I'm newly in my 30's), but Ender's game just hit me so hard. I'm glad for the experience.
