Orson Scott Card presents a very reasonable tale of modern American Civil war. As always, Card is able to take a seemingly hoaky plot and turn it into a masterpiece.”

The ending was predictable..but the action was exciting. To read this you need to be interested in politics. Card explains his views well. I particularly enjoyed his afterward at the end of the book. ”
