Would you listen to The Folk of the Fringe again? Why?
Yes, I would listen to it again. It's a believable/realistic book to listen to, which makes you think; and something I can play for my family when we drive cross country. It's a little more "safe"; a quality very rare in sci-fi. It still has very mature material that you will have to stop and talk through with your kids, but it's presented in an old school "John Wayne western" manor (bad things happen, but we are not drug through the gore or nudity of it all; if that makes sense).What did you like best about this story?
Because it seems realistic it is not aggravating the first or second time through, unlike other books. Sometimes I listen to books and think "What! Why are they doing that!!! I wouldn't react like that!!!" or "Oh, OK. So the police just happen to be there, right then. How convenient for the author." and it seems fake.Take into consideration the current fad novel, "You want to take my kid and put them in an arena to fight other kids to the death?!?! Hell NO! ATTACK that silly lady with the microphone..." And that would be that; I would be dead, or revolution would take place, no more story to write about. (It took a LOT of disconnecting myself to get into that particular story (you know which one I'm talking about). Some things are worth dying for, and sometimes it's better to make a stand, than outlive your kids. NO parent wants to outlive their children! How dumb! Grrr!"
THIS BOOK DOES NOT DO THAT! Its a lot more realistic!
Which scene was your favorite?
I'm Mormon, and when the characters made accurate reference to the Mormon culture it drew me in and sent chills down my spine. "How THRILLING!" I thought. Someone else said it was not "preachy" of the Mormon religion. I agree. Most references were about the culture, rather then the belief, and in the book it was viewed as acceptable to not be Mormon. Additionally, their was heroic and villainous acts on both sides of the 'member/nonmember' fence.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE THIS BOOK INTO A MOVIE! Don't make changes like when Ender did NOT break the other kids arm in the shuttle, or when the snake was killed by Harry in the movie, but Neval in the book. Neval killing the snake was much MUCH "cooler".Any additional comments?
Orson Scott Card = Great author. With that in mind prepare yourself for long conversations between the characters, and a significant amount of time spent by the characters mole-ing over ideas, in his books.I'm a post-apocalypse fan!
