I wondered if Card's new one was worth the read. I had the same experience rereading Enders Game about five years ago - enjoyed it just as much. Another thing Card did a pretty good job of describing is how video gaming has evolved - not that gamers today are in actuality controlling vast space battles against alien species, but that the context of the game or the fabric of the world is being created by the gamers themselves. I'm thinking of WoW, Second Life, and some of what EA Games is trying to do with their latest generation of games that pull from the users creation and experience. Anyway, thanks again. I'll pick up Exile when I'm done with what I'm reading now. SD Thanks for the suggestion Brenda. I wondered if Card’s new one was worth the read.
