Orson Scott Card

[EUOL]

The following review will appear in Scott's Column, as well as on the cover/inside few pages of my book:

Edit--I decided that I shouldn't go around posting the review before he gets a chance to put it in his column.  So, I put it on my site and gave it a link here.  Not a big difference, but I think it is a bit more respectful.  Take out the space before 13 to see the review.

dude. I *am* so frickin jealous.

Wow. I actually made my coworkers gather around as I read it to them. That's so impressive. And I thought Simon and Dave gave you good cover quotes...

[Skar]

Dude.  You Rock!

Wow. I am so excited to read it.  

Jerk.

[House of Mustard]

Wow.  "The finest novel of fantasy to be written in many years."

That's incredible, EUOL.  Congrats!

Dude.

That's a glowing review. Not going to find that every day.

"I'm glad I didn't write this book. I'm not the least bit envious. Because if I had written it, I wouldn't have had the pleasure of letting it unfold before me as this story did, in all its ugliness and beauty and excitement and pain."

Wow, I hope you're not tripping on Egotism right now EUOL. =P Good job man, after all those crappy novels you've written in the past, it's about time one good one gets through.

[Peter Ahlstrom]

That's awesome.

Hm, is it really good to have it in the book though? All of it (that you posted)?

[EUOL]

I'm sure they won't use the whole thing.  Just some select paragraphs.

[Spriggan]

You should send him a Fuzzy "I'm Communist" Shirt as a thank you.

[Tekiel]

Whoa!  Even if I didn't know you, I think I'd read the book just from reading his review of it.  That's awesome!

[stacer]

So he's going to be in Boston this weekend. But not to talk about literature; he's talking about Israel and the Middle East Conflict.

Not sure if I'll go. It's my friend's birthday party at the same time.

So I think I will actually be going to it after all. My friend Cassy just asked me to go with her. So I'm going. So if there's anything interesting, I'll report it later.
