I actually have several gay pulp novels. Some of them are pretty fun.

Enders game is one of my favorite books of all time.

The followup (Speaker for the Dead) is a terrific sequal, and nothing like the original (Ender's game.)

Orson Scott Card has an incredible gift for story telling.

His books are like CynthiaSock's ass--smooth, perfectly proportional, and a terrific ride!

Ender's Game is a book I've wanted to read for some time. I read a lot of sci-fi, but I've never read any Orson Scott Card.

Card is amazing.

His books are both plot and character driven and all his characters are very human. You're automatically hooked.

Sci-Fi, though at times prominant in his books, is only the backdrop. Card does not go into wild speculation of what how technology affects you--rather, it's taken mostly for granted. His books are more about the human delima--Think of them as Lord of The Flies set in the future. Brilliant stuff.

Still sounds like SF to me. In fact, it sounds like the best kinda sci-fi. It's fun sometimes to read novels that really delve into the science and tecnological advances of the future, but place a person in extraordinary circumstances in those times and I'm even more interested.

currently for my art history class:
