Title: Pathetic Retelling of the Book of Mormon
Review: Having read the Book of Mormon, I was surprised that this had series had received any praise at all, and I am even more surprised by the reviews that state how "original" this story is. Card's retelling of the Book of Mormon in this series is pathetic - the story is lifted almost directly from the Book of Nephi in the Book of Mormon, the science fiction twist on this Book of Mormon story comes across as pedestrian, the writing is drawn out and exacerbating for most of the book, and the character development is just sad.If you want a better telling of this story then read the Book of Mormon.If you are not interested in reading the Book of Mormon then I suggest you stay away from Mr. Card pathetic Memory of Earth series.
