I have to rank Children of the Mind as one of the just plain weirdest books I’ve ever read. Just when I thought it couldn’t get weirder, Orson Scott Card manages to throw something else at you. After I finished Children of the Mind, I decided at that point I was going to move onto some other book series.

I’ll still recommend Ender’s Game as that’s a classic, but I wouldn’t bother with the sequels.
