    Orson Scott Card's book is an enjoyable read, and he explains viewpoint--something every writer must know.

    I highly recommend this book to writers of any genre. It’s brilliant. This book changed writing from a hobby to a craft for me. I’ve read and re-read it many times.

    Anything you can read about writing by Orson Scott Card is a must-do. This book is no exception. He's got a very practical and easy-to-understand approach that, as a reader, I appreciate, and, as a writer, rings an instinctive bell.

    I really enjoy everything written by Orson Scott Card and this includes his thoughts on the craft of fiction writing. An outstanding book for all aspiring and veteran story tellers.

    One of the finest instructional books about writing I've ever read.

    The title says characters and viewpoint, but the book covers so much more. The explanation of distance is one of the best I've read. This is one of books that sits within reaching distance for frequent referral.
