More About Maps in a Mirror: The Short Fiction of Orson Scott Card

Leyel had buried himself within the marriage, helping and serving and loving Deet with all his heart. She was wrong, completely wrong about his coming to Trantor. He hadn't come as a sacrifice, againt his will, solely because she wanted to come. On the contrary: because she wanted so much to come, he also wanted to come, changing even his desires to coincide with hers. She commanded his very heart, because it was impossible for him not to desire anything that would bring her happiness.But she, no, she could not do that for him. If she went to Terminus,... And then the queen wept with all her heart. Not for the cruel and greedy man who had warred and killed and savaged everywhere he could. But for the boy who had somehow turned into that man, the boy whose gentle hand had comforted her childhood hurts, the boy whose frightened voice had cried out to her at the end of his life, as if he wondered why he had gotten lost inside himself, as if he realized that it was too, too late to get out again. Orson Scott Card, Maps in a Mirror: The Short Fiction of Orson Scott Card The memory of the pain did not destroy the reality of the pleasure; grief did not obliterate joy.

Amazing collection that shows so many facets of what Orson Scott Card is capable of. I have heard that his wife will not read his horror, and I now understand why--some of the stories are so chilling and grisly that I refuse to read them a second time. On the other hand, I have read this cover-to-cover, for everything else, four times.... Most of the stories in this collection are not interesting. Some are very nice, but the majority were unclear and not what I love about Orson Scott Card's books. Many of his short fiction books are written in childish-bad-grammar intentionally, I don't completely understand why (for instance, "Malpractice"). The stories at the end of...
