Summary: Definitely An Ideal Sequal!
Review: If you enjoy Card's books such as Ender's Game and The Memory of Earth, you'll love this one. It is an excellent sequal that carries on the excellent story of the "Homecoming" series. This is a definite must buy if you are a card reader. Don't listen to those people that don't like it. If you like Card, you'll like this...

Summary: Mindless
Review: Juvenile. I was stuck with a couple of books from the Homecoming series on a 6 hour flight. The characters are annoyingly one-dimensional - the good are too good and the evil too evil. It appears that Card is just telling a very simplistic morality tale, stretched over many books. Might be enlightening to a 6 year (an extraordinary naive one). Stick to Aesop's Fables for this kind of stuff. I threw the books out.

Summary: Religiosly black and white - more than a century out of date
Review: Like in Memory of Earth the characters are sickeningly bland, and what's more important act outrageously stupid for people living in a dream world that has freedom of religion, instant data access, instant communication and seemingly a social system granting prosperity to everyone.The worst part are the religious ravings and horrible dream interpretations. If I hadn't read the Ender series I would have been on the verge of calling the author a religious nutbar but, alas ...

Summary: I was ready to get out of the car.
Review: Listened to this book while travelling. I have read and listed to the Ender's Saga. In between finishing those early books and starting the Homecoming series I discovered OSC's LDS affiliation. While there was not much overt influence in the Ender's books parallels were endless in this volume. Rather than look at L. Ron Hubbard I would rather compare this cross-genre influence to C.S. Lewis or Madelyne L'Engle and their sybolic Christian references. Pleasant driving drivel.

Summary: Second in the series.... A Little slow off the mark
Review: My congratulations to Card on a fine work. This whole series is very good. He has created an entire civilization and society with rules and laws. The amount of detail is incredible. However, if you didn't start at the first book, it takes a while to catch on. Also, if you don't read the books in order or even soon after each other, the relationships of all (and there are a lot) the characters to each other and to the plot becomes a little hazy. I would have given this one four stars except for the fact that the story is so complex and you can't just leave the series for an extended period and then start again and hope to understand what is going on. Card remains one of my favorite authors.

Summary: FANTASTIC! AS GOOD AS (if not better) THAN HIS BEST!!!!
Review: Now.... many may disagree with me about this but this is one of our good friend Orson's BEST books on par with Enders Game and Speaker for the Dead. Now you may be reading these other reviews and seeign a lot of references to Mormon stuff. Well if you, like myself, are not a Mormon do not be alarmed it is perfectly accesible to us all.... and it really is great. The charecters are great, ESPECIALLY Moozh, and the plot is definately cool, it's all about the Oversoul manipulating people through other people and it really is great, end is a bit of an anti-climax but hey, they can't go off finishing things yet!!!

Summary: Lack of creativity
Review: Orson Scott Card is Mormon, and if we didn't know it before, now we do--he based the entire plot of the Homecoming series on the Book of Mormon. It's so pathetic that I am speechless.

Summary: Excellent Book
Review: OSC has done it again. This book is truly one of the best book's I have ever read. If you liked Ender's Game then you should like this as well. In a way there are parallels between Ender and Nafai.
