This parts of the Homecoming story explores the dynamics of marriage and sex in a society that is run by women. It is barely science fiction. It reminds me a little of Ursula Le Guin, except Le Guin is much more obvious and usually stretches the boundaries of relationships even more.This story sends our group back to the the city of Bascilica to find wives. That is an interesting challenge because the marriage customs in the city are to be married for one year at a time. This mission to find

I'm still holding my breath for the cool action that was promised in The Memory of Earth to begin. Or the characters to undergo something profound.It's not happened yet. Oh well, maybe in the next book.

I read the first installment in this series many years ago, and Ive had this one in reserve on my hard drive for years, savoring and anticipating what I was sure would be a great experience. I came away largely disappointed and questioning whether I want to continue with the series.This is a hard review to write. This entire Homecoming series is loosely based on the First Book of Nephi, which is one of 15 books that comprise The Book of Mormon. I cannot stress hard enough the importance of the

Card's world building on Harmony continues in his second book of the Homecoming series. The Call of Earth starts immediately where The Memory of Earth left off. Basilica, the city of women, is breaking with Wetchik in his self exile, Gaballufix's death at the hands of Nafai, and Gaballufix's militia beginning to rebel against an order that has been in the city for centuries. Along comes a "hero" who is there to clam this storm but really to make Basilica his own.In this book the main character

3.5 rounded up to a four because I couldn't give this three...Why do I love this series so much yet also... find it hard to love? This is only book two, though I will probably read the rest of these books this month. Orson Scott Card has created such a cool planet. Basilica is my favorite fictional city I have ever read about and the characters... they're so deep and engrossing. I love the traditions in this book, the dialogue, and the humour. I really don't know how to properly talk about this

I read this book because a person I mentor was reading it and I felt I needed to keep up with them and discuss it. I definitely WILL NOT be reading any more. I am thoroughly disgusted with this author using a story from scripture with such vulgarity. I discussed with my mentee why I will not be reading any more of this series. It was a good discussion about choosing good classics vs. something others are raving about that may not fit with our personal goals. NOTE TO PARENTS: This book contains

I really did not like the story. I had to stop reading it. The series is just a fantastical account of the Book Mormon stories. Not my thing, even though Card is an amazing author. He should stick to more "Ender" books.
