The Pope reads #scifi, and we’re not talking about the Bible. http://ow.ly/r3NxS

Never heard of the author or either his his books. While the site claims the book he read was SF, I`m not so sure. Regardless, it would be interesting to see if “El Papa” starts attending cons. Even more curious if he is into cosplay (which is kinda one of his daily job functions anyhow).

The atomic bomb should never have been built, but we built one anyway. Are killer robots similarly inevitable? http://ow.ly/qRTRt

The man who coined the phrase “Radium Age” uses it 40 times in his list of top 101#scifi adventures. Is it a record? http://ow.ly/qPuS3 -

Orson Scott Card says he’ll write more Ender’s Game books. I guess 16 was not enough. http://ow.ly/qsbDZ

Lazarus
Not quite 16, but still enough. I’ve come to a decision to no longer buy any of the books due to Cards ever increasing rhetoric and gay bashing, but truth be told I probably wouldn’t have bought them anyway because I’ve more or less had my fill of the series. But then again that was what I thought when I finished “Children of the Mind” and then he surprised the hell out of me with “Ender’s Shadow” (I was persuaded by your very review to get back on the bandwagon!). Undoubtedly a very gifted writer, but an extreme radical at the same time. I was so taken with the conflicting feelings I had on this that I recommended a panel discussion for Can-Con this year which was approved. While not Card centric it was titled “Separating the art from the artist”, Card was of course featured in the discussion.

That is cool. Haven’t seen it myself, but will at the first opportunity. Really looking forward to seeing it.
