Product Description

Review

Praise for Orson Scott Card' s Enchantment
" Card is a powerful storyteller."
- Los Angeles Times
" [His] prose is a model of narrative clarity; the author never says more than is needed or arbitrarily withholds information, yet even a simple declarative sentence carries a delicious hint of further revelation."
- The New York Times
" The best writer science fiction has to offer."
- The Houston Post
" Card is skilled at pacing and good with an action scene, but he has raised to a fine art the creation of suspense by ethical dilemma, and in doing so has raised his work to a high plane."
- Chicago Sun-Times

2.0 out of 5 stars Very odd, 3 Feb 2009
By B. Larsen (Denmark) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Magic Street (Paperback)
I have read and loved most of Card's excellent work (Ender Saga, Shadow Saga and Enchantment) and when I got this, I was really surprised.

I liked the idea of the story, but nomatter how much I love Card's other works, this one lacks realism (which is probably why it reminds me of Stephen King) and seems uncoordinated somehow. The characters and environment aren't believable and you don't really get a relationship with them as reader, which I feel has always been Card's strength.
