From Gary Bauer:
Perhaps the biggest disappointment at the ballot box last night was the defeat of every initiative related to the sanctity of life. Parental notification failed in California. Expanded human embryonic stem cell research was approved in Michigan. Euthanasia was legalized in Washington State. And efforts to expand legal protections to the unborn were defeated in Colorado and South Dakota.
Since reading Ender’s Game, my husband recommended the companion book Ender’s Shadow by Orson Scott Card.
I am not usually a scifi reader, but this series is less scifi and more about character development. The main characters, the kids, have complex backgrounds lending to their involved personalities. As the story progresses, the kids grow in a genuine way as kids would. The fun part is, they can outsmart the adults.
