Review 1: Children of the Mind Audiobook by Dustin R. Pinkerton
I read this book to finally conclude the Ender saga, and I’m glad I scratched that itch, but this was such a disappointing read. Ender’s Game is one of my all time favorites and the followups of Xenocide and Speaker were both classics, even the later addition Ender in Exile did the series great justice. This book constantly felt like trudging through mud, with endless interior monologues and philosophical hypothesis. The story felt like it wasn’t moving and I honestly wasn’t sure that the major problems were that big of a deal, considering the ability of our characters. As I was reading I was constantly considering multiple different ways to easily resolve our dilemmas. The crucial moments just seemed so much less intense than typical Card or the rest of the Ender series because the resolutions were so much more obvious and never seemed to be in doubt. Mind you, the action that needed resolution was bogged down by constant internal debate by side characters trying to imagine what other people would do next, like an internal chess match, or what was morally right or wrong, but none of the side characters were intense enough to match the series character that this book was meant to crescendo, Ender. He just sort disappeared from relevance, and I’m not sure any aiua games or new character drama can make up for that. I’ve read plenty of other Card books and will continue to follow him, but I guess I’ll be on the lookout for the overly philosophical ones going forward and hope to keep finding the great characters, fantasy, and truly mind bending situations and problem solving that made me fall in love with his style. This one was an unfortunate wash and a disappointing series conclusion. I only recommend it if you are dying to finish the series, but I would replace this book with Exile in the four book sets.
Review 2: Children of the Mind Audiobook by Reece
I didn’t read the reviews before reading this. Having finished the book I think it was a wonderful conclusion to the ender saga.
The main complaint I see here is about the run on internal monologues. I had taken note to the long whinded monologues but they never really bothered me.
The story and characters were worth while and fascinating, especially if you’re in love with the characters from previous books.
It was moving and touching.
I know people are expecting a masterpiece like Ender’s Game or Speaker. But this is not one of them, but it is a good book, with wonderful characters and a compelling story.
Definitely worth the read.
Review 3: Children of the Mind Audiobook by Nancy Call
Deep into the clever plot, finding the story fascinating, sad about it coming to the end of the series, I was disappointed when Card slowed momentum by doing one annoying thing: he delved repetitiously into the thoughts and motivations of each and every character until this reader no longer cared what anyone thought. Pages and pages of characters thinking their thoughts out loud, instead of being enlightening, deepening and expanding the character, became tedious, while the action went into a dead stop. In one case, action that was supposedly crucial to the survival of major characters, stopped while the characters verbalized their feelings for pages, and two of the main characters actually left the main room of the space ship, so they could talk alone, all while time was possibly running out. The timing is faulty here, and more than once I wished Card had a better editor. But I am glad I read the series, because it did come to an end, and I had the pleasure of reading an ingenious imaginative tale.
