Pathfinder is a book written by Orson Scott Card(some of you may know him as the author of The Ender's Game)Truthfully I bought this book for trying to save money I have a limited budget now so I wanted to read something that is worthwhile and when I saw how thick it was I thought I might as well read it(it has about 650 pages).The book was published in 2010 and receive positive reviews.
The good
.It has a great story(well explained story and to me I felt it gave me something original)
.The characters are wonderfully created
The bad
.It is a little confusing for me at first(I mean the book has about 650 of pages so it can seriously turn of some people if the start is confusing for them)
.The ending was too cliffhangery(I don't know even if this a word)for me
Quick summary
Rigg is a boy who lives with his father on the mountains.he has a special ability he can see people's path but strangely his father doesn't have a path.He teaches Rigg evrything on how to speak,hunt,survive,etc.One day he gets impaled by a tree(not a spoiler)he ask Rigg to go to her sister(Param)While crossing a waterfall he tries to save a boy named Kyokay but fails because suddenly the past solidify and one of the path(a man)stops him......... that's all I guess.
The conclusion
Pathfinder is definitely a suprise to me.When I started the story was a little slow and confusing not to mention some characters were a little dull and unfleshed at first but when the story advances The story becomes clearer and the characters becomes more fleshed and likable.I was a bit suprised on the ending I read book with a cliffhanger ending but to me I felt like that the book just stopped from the middle of a chapter and The End.Anyway reader will definitely find Pathfinder as a great and enjoyable book providing that they didn't stop reading around the first 150 pages of course.
