Worthing Saga
Orson Scott Card

A story within a story, this is a tale of a telepathic person, his quest to settle a world, and how he tried to build it; and later how his children brought peace to the universe, and how he put a stop to it. A classic Card novel, takes a lot of the feel from Homecoming, but has a touch of Ender's Game in it. A nice read, kind of on the short side.

4.5 / 5 stars

I know this is over 6 years old now... but I just read it.
Found it a bit too much like Card's later books (which I guess it is)... too much psychological / how society works type craziness for me... still a nice read though. I prefer Card's earlier works... much more simple and more easy to enjoy. 3/5

I also just finished his Treason book... would not particularly recommend it though. The basis for the story seemed interesting and it paced pretty well, but several parts of it were pretty out there and weird.
