Books!

Currently finishing off "Xenocide" by Orson Scott Card. It's the third in a series of four books written about a fictional character named Ender Wiggin. The stories are set far into the future in a fairly original universe concept. The books become increasingly character driven as you proceed through the series. Sometimes the descriptions of character thought processes in "Xenocide" become frustratingly internalized, extending through several paragraphs before throwing the reader back into real time. Although the author insists that the individual books in the series can stand alone, I would read them in order. Start with "Ender's Game."
