"There is no denying the power of his storytelling, and the vision. There is no chance that this commercial House of Card will topple." --SF Commentary "Card's latest installment in his Shadow subseries ("Ender's Shadow," etc.), which parallels the overarching series that began with "Ender's Game" (1985), does a superlative job of dramatically portraying the maturing process of child into adult. ...

  • EMPIRE review by 149roman

    It about what's going on in this country right now, And someone doing something about it. The way thing's are between The LEFT and RIGHT you wonder when things might get violent in this book they do, ORSON SCOTT CARD takes us on a trip of what could happen especally in today's AMERICA with people losing there Job's, High Taxs, Home foreclosures, Corrupt Government, Big companies stealing Billions of taxpayer dollars and getting a way with it. (The way i see it the Dam is about BURST), And in the Book it has already BURST, And we see what they have to go though to get to other side. (In this reveiwer's opinion there is a LOT OF BAD BLOOD IN THIS COUNTRY A LONE that just has to be BLEED OUT.) This Book show us what really going on in this Country from a God's Eye point of View.

  • Empire by Orson Scott Card

    Card takes us through a civil war that could indeed happen "now". I enjoyed his polotics and the part where one of the main character's ends up on the O'Reilly Factor. Despite all the fun in this book, there is a very important message Card gives us: THE LEFT AND RIGHT ARE INSANE! I don't know if Card would agree with me, but I believe it is because the insane elite have created a Left and Right to hold us polarized and in their Machiavellian grip. Control is the Goal. Should civil war happen, I believe it would not be between the Left and Right, as portrayed here; but between the Military Industrial Complex and the American People. I'm glad to report, as of today, our Republic is still standing, albeit weakly. Read this and then go watch Alex Jones' "End Game", "9/11 The Road to Tyranny", ...

  • Empire by Orson Scott Card

    I tell every politically charged individual that I meet to read this book. Empire is a captivating roller coaster of "what if's", that doesn't let you go till the very end. Some say that our government is corrupt, and everyone knows it, but what would happen if we tried doing something about it? If there was a divide in our country, who should the Armed Forces protect, The Government, or The People? This book brings the reader through that very difficult question, and the hypothetical circumstances that could surround such an event. Empire is an exciting ride, and I recommend it to anyone that wonders what would happen if the Government and the Citizens of this country went to war.
