Lost Boys, by Orson Scott Card


Card is one of those talented, prolific writers who lives in the wake of one particular book - which is either fortunate or unfortunate, depending on your point of view.

We spoke recently and I said that, while Ender’s Game is a masterpiece, my favorite of his books was Lost Boys. It was as if I’d recognized the shy, quiet child who grows up in the shadow of the popular child. Card acknowledged that this might be his favorite, too.

A story of loss, love, and missing children. Plus a surprise ending. Warning: Be ready for an emotional roller coaster.
