OSC: On the contrary, I HAVE to read in order to keep my brain full. I already mentioned the brilliant K.J. Parker. I also just read Neil Shusterman's brilliant new novel Antsy Does Time - and don't forget his Everlost. James Maxey's Bitterwood and Dragonforge are wonderful; I delighted in The Magicians and Mrs. Quent by Galen Beckett. And everybody should be looking forward to Ken Scholes's Lamentation - it is astonishingly original and unforgettably moving. And I'm assuming that everyone has already read Patrick Rothfuss's The Name of the Wind.
Add to that my constant reviewing of mystery novels and other books of all kinds in my "Uncle Orson Reviews Everything" column, and I think my answer to this question is covered.
I'd like to thank Mr. Card for being so gracious to answer my interview questions. And I'm very excited to read The Lost Gate when it comes out from Del Rey in Fall 2009. Mr. Card was nice enough to let me read a chapter of that book that I will hopefully get a chance to post a review of it very soon!
p.s. Be sure to check out Stonefather in its novella form that was just released! And if you've not read his other works, check those out as well!
