About BookTalk.org

BookTalk.org is an online book discussion group, also known as a "book club" or "reading group." We're dedicated to quality books, good people and great conversations. At BookTalk.org we read and discuss both fiction and non-fiction books, as a group, and then host live chats with the authors. Anyone is welcome to join as we're 100% free.

BookTalk.org NEWS

BookTalk.org maintained our forums on ezboard from May of 2002 through August of 2007. Ezboard served us well for all those years, but the time came for us to transition to a much more sophisticated forum system for our book discussions.

Our membership increased and we were in need of more bells and whistles than ezboard or even Yuku provided. So in late 2007 BookTalk.org made a major improvement and we now host our own forums.

The below Yuku forums are still open and anyone can read and make posts, but I strongly recommend you check out our new phpBB2.0 forums.

I got it for Xmas (well really I got a gift card). Anyone read this collection? Any comments would be appreciated. Mr. P. Mr. P's place. I warned you!!! Mr. P's Bookshelf. I'm not saying it's usual for people to do those things but I(with the permission of God) have raised a dog from the dead and healed many people from all sorts of ailments. - Asana The one thing of which I am positive is that there is much of which to be negative - Mr. P.

Indisputable BookTalk Master Posts: 4113 03/02/07 16:16:12 Indisputable BookTalk Master	I am just about done with this book and I did not like it at all. The shorts about the world of capitol were interesting, the the bulk of the book that takes place regarding Jason Worthing and Justice are just way to shallow, simple and uninteresting that I had to struggle to finish that part. Card seems to have not bothered to develop the characters, instead opting for a papier mache cast of cardboard cutouts to promote his thin plot. Card amazed me with Ender and Speaker for the Dead...but so far, much of his other work has left me dry. Mr. P.

What is all this shit about Angels? Have you heard this? 3 out of 4 people believe in Angels. Are you F****** STUPID? Has everybody lost their mind? - George Carlin I came to kick ass and chew Bubble Gum...and I am all out of Bubble Gum - They Live, Roddy Piper

Indisputable BookTalk Master Posts: 4113 06/27/07 08:27:20 Indisputable BookTalk Master	I will check this out when my cycle returns to Card. I do like his writing ability, but Worthing just turned me off. And it had so much potential. Thanks! Mist-r-Pee But atheism is no more a religion than not playing chess is a hobby. - Robert Sawyer - Sci Fi Author I'm not saying it's usual for people to do those things but I(with the permission of God) have raised a dog from the dead and healed many people from all sorts of ailments. - Asana Boditharta (former booktalk troll) "The Sentient may percieve and love the universe, but the universe cannot percieve and love the sentient. The universe sees no distinction between the multitude of creatures and elements which comprise it. All are equal. None is favored...It cannot control what it creates and it cannot, it seems, be controlled by its creations (though a few might decieve themselves otherwise). Those who curse the workings of the universe curse that which is deaf. Those who strike out at those workings fight that which is inviolate. Those who shake their fists, shake their fists at blind stars." - Michael Moorcock in the "Queen of the Swords"
