Title: OK for a quick, easy read
Review: Like many people I suspect, I read this book because of the hype. It was entertaining and an easy read, but didn't leave much of an impact. I didn't mind Card's writing style, rather dull, but to the point. My complaint is how he handled the minor characters, especially Peter. Why even introduce a character if you are not going to develop it in anyway? The psychology of Peter, and for that matter Val, is barely touched upon and then Peter seems to disappear from the story all together, as though the author grew bored with him. It could have been a better story with more character development, as it is, it is still a fairly entertaining and quick-paced story.
