Teacher Suspended For Reading Ender's Game To Students

It's not. It's a pretty bad work IMO. Characters are caricatures and the dialogue is unbelievably corny. Bleh.

That's what the reviews said. Glad I missed it.


You should try the Honor Harrington series. It is the only sci-fi series I have kept up with.

Weber is a fun author. Oddly enough the peacenik liberals are villians in one of the books too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Weber

One of my favorites is 1634, about a small town in America that suddenly finds itself, through a freak accident, back in 1634 Europe. The speculation about what modern American ideas and ideals does to Europe of the time is fascinating.

Very military-ish sci-fi about wars tends to be what I seem to like, with the occasional fastasy sword/magic novel thrown in.

Probably why I liked Enders Game in the first place.

I love Weber. I've read all of the Harrington books....as well as the Dahak series, the Starfire series, the Bolo books...now I'm buried in the Safehold series.
That 1634 book was written with Eric Flynt. I've been eyeing that for awhile. I'll give it a spin.

Excellent book, you may like it.

I've had this on my shelf for two years and haven't opened it yet. Thanks for the reminder.

Rock on. I try to support local stores as well. That said, I was just poking fun I really don't think Empire is worth the read.

Yes, I know.

With this controversy, I may have to get it just to see.

The growth will be no better than the weakest variable allows for.

I'd highly suggest just rereading Starship Troopers instead. (I can't imagine you haven't read it at least once.
