Pathfinder Audiobook

" This book was good but I had a few problems with it. One it was long there were a few spots it dragged a little for me. The second thing that bothered me was the time travel. It got really confusing and didn't make sense. I felt a little better in the acknowledgments that the author meant for it to be that way. It was a clean book for anyone to read if you can get through 657 pages. "

" I finished this last night and am in total agreement with Brian's review! "Ruins" is next in the Pathfinder series, which I am three chapters into, and have to think that it will be as enjoyable as "Pathfinder". "

" I always thoughtEnder's Game was a totally great read for students (gr. 5-7), but a little immature for anyone older. Pathfinder is an awesome book for kids and adults alike! It's sci-fi set in an almost medieval world, so great if you like sci-fi and historical fiction. "

" It was well written, as all his books are, but the complicated time travel premise was just not very enjoyable for me to read about, it just didn't make sense. "

" Goodness gracious, this book is so long and boring! I had to take breaks from this book and read others just to make it through to the end. Honestly, if Pathfinder weren't on the 2012 Tayshas consideration list, I wouldn't have even finished it. There is no action or suspense to move the plot forward, and I thought Rigg was more than a little annoying - no one is that capable, knowledgeable, intelligent, etc. Especially at 14 or so. The recurring, cyclical debates about changing the past and its effect on the future were incredibly repetitive and dull, and evidently, there is more dullness to come. The ending seemed to suggest a sequel that I will definitely not read. I don't anticipate very many of my students enjoying this book. "

" 4.5 brilliant... expected nothing less from card "

" Gave up after meeting Loaf and Leaky, scanned through to see if worth finishing it. Decided not to. Liked the premise of folds and 19 instances of time but the characters just weren't worth following for me. Onwards. "

" Amazing story, couldn't put it down. It's a must read. "

" A fantastic new twist on time travel. What makes this so interesting is that time travel was almost incidental to the already engaging story line. A good read for any fantasy lover. "

" Loved it. It took me like 400 pages to figure out, but I loved it! It was so confusing, it kept me wanting more. It was confusing as hell, but then not so much that I wanted to put it down. I've recommended this book to a lot of people, certain that anyone will love it! "

" An amazingly long winded book about a pair of boys with the power to change the world. That said, it is by OSC, and very much well written. Looking forward to the sequel! "

" Loved the social or mental analysis that happens. should make it a bit more quick paced at parts but very enjoyable nonetheless "

" I really love the world Card created in this one, and I'm eager to find out what happens in the next book! "

" Strong characters. Interesting use of time travel and parallel universes. Card is one of my favorite authors and I enjoyed exploring another of his universes. "

" I loved this book. It brought back the wonderful feelings I had while reading The Homecoming Saga. However, the time travel paradoxes in this new series confused the heck out of me, challenged me, and entertained me all at the same time. I can't wait for book 2. "

" This was a good read, not as good as Ender's Game, but good. It sets the stage for a series (made me think of Narnia Chronicles) and I'm looking forward to the continued quests of this set of characters. "

" I really enjoyed this book. The characters are great and the twists in the time line really keep you on your toes in keeping up with everything. This book was like a nice slow boil. I can't wait to read the next one. "

" This book is really good! I read it in 2 days, couldn't put it down. It had awesome twists and was a really unique story. "

" How did I miss this book when it first came out! I loved this first of a series. It takes the precociousness of Ender with the homeliness of the Alvinmaker series and mixes it into a wonderful story of its own. I can't wait to see how this world progresses and hope its heroes are up to the task. "

" Interesting. Didn't realize it was book 1 of a series. Still couldn't tell you the conversations between Ram and the computers or when Rigg & Umbo discussed their talents. Good Story, well told, and adventurous. "

" If, as a writer, you have the tendency to over-exposit the obvious, you should never, under any circumstances, narrate from multiple characters' perspectives. "

" Interesting and intelligent book. At least it has the appearance of being smart which amounted to the same thing for me. Clean, too. "

" Really good book although I still don't understand the ships!!!! "

" Start of a new series. Science fiction with (mind magic??). Suitable for teens as well as adults. Not as good as the Ender series but definitely worth reading once or twice. "

" I really enjoyed this book. Its the type of fiction I most enjoy. However, toward the end of the book it started dragging. Also, the wrap-up was kind of anti-climatic for me and left a lot of unanswered questions. "

" I was a little confused at the start of this book, but upon getting into I realized that was kind of the point. it will be interesting to see where the author goes for the next one. "

" I am still reading this, but I am still in love with it! Rigg is my favorite character. It's a GREAT book, though I am actually not reading it on my nook. "

" I really enjoyed this book. In the acknowledgements in the end, Card hinted at future books and I do hope there is a sequel. "

" This book was amazing. Mr. Card's storytelling is second to none. The way he blends different timelines is seamless. Can't wait for the next in the series! "
