| Episode 7: "Mortal Gods" by Orson Scott Card | 24 mai 2021 | 00:33:22 | |
In this review of "Mortal Gods", I try and figure out how to reconcile myself to the fact that Orson Scott Card is a great writer of science fiction, who also has voiced opinions that make it difficult to rationalise reading his stories without going against my principles.
