Orson Scott Card is a genius
« on: February 01, 2006, 04:39:55 PM »
I cast him aside as mediocre scifi the first time I read Enders game. But then,
a few months ago, I re-read it, and the three sequels.
  His take on diplomacy is unique.
The roleplaying games were never a danger.
Indeed, the only ones with real room to be
offended were pagans. As for me, I wish we druids could turn wood to gold. ;)

I like Ender's conflict resolution methods.
To defeat your enemy in battle is glorious; to defeat him without battle is sublime.

Could someone explain who he is please, the name sounds vaugley familier.
A necromancer is only evil in the eye of those who hate him and only hated by those who do not understand him.
