melindahigbee 's review for:

The Lost Gate by Orson Scott Card
3.0

I liked it a lot. The part I enjoyed the most was his ability to portray the mind of a 13-year-old boy. Danny is in turns beastly and benevolent, smart-alecky and sweet. I really liked that OSC didn't make him completely sympathetic or completely villainous. As I recall, that seems to be how teenagers are - a study in extremes. It reminded me to have a lot more patience with the teenagers I interact with.
