THE ELEPHANTS OF POSNAN AND OTHER STORIES

Orson Scott Card is a modern star of science fiction and fantasy, equally at home in both. Sometimes he ventures into horror, and his tone is often somber and introspective. This short story collection draws from his career as a whole and includes a short version of his most famous novel, Ender's Game. The producers have selected a group of more or less well-known actors, and each is assigned one of the stories: Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., Robert Forster, William Windom, Roddy McDowall, Robert Foxworth, among others. Card himself reads several of the tales. Professionals all, the readers are expressive and effective. D.R.W. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/SEP 02]
