[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] Re: Card: I haven't read anything he's written since, uh, Pastwatch, I think, or Speaker for the Dead, whichever came latter, but seeing as how he's written a fantasy(magic realist?) novel sequence that's more or less explicitly about North America seen through a Book of Mormon lens (Alvin Maker), and another sf sequence that's like that but in space (Homecoming, I think? ((Which, come to think of it, may be a lot like Battlestar Galactica, though, again, I haven't read it.))), plus at least a couple novels about Biblical figures (OK, not exclusively LDS ones, but still), I'd say he makes no effort to hide his own beliefs in his fiction. Sometimes. Now, despite that, he's got lots of stuff that isn't particulary Mormon, and for awhile I'd have said that he's a fine example of how an author and his/her work are separate entities. But don't get me started about Orson Scott Card and some of his <a href="http://www.ornery.org/">beliefs and opinions.</a> [/QB][/QUOTE]
