Review title: Over-toots the horn of Mormonism
Product review: This book isn't poorly written or anything, but it's not at all comparable to the Ender's Game series or the other Orson Scott Card I am familiar with. I certainly wouldn't call it an "absorbing thriller". The indications of creepy/supernatural content given by the cover art, title, and plot synopses are all misleading. The whole story of the 'lost boys' is just background material, just a vehicle for a story which is really about a Mormon family trying to be good people... which is kind of interesting, I mean, you don't read too many books where the main characters are Mormons. Card, though, he really hits you over the head with the religious values stuff. And anyway, I felt kind of wronged, as I was expecting both a ghost story and something at least HALF as exciting as Ender's Game and its progeny.For a better book about both family AND supernatural stuff, I recommend "Firestarter" by Stephen King.
