This book is about a boy, Annset, a songbird from the Songhouse, which is a dwelling on a planet where the focus is singing and all that is possible (and even more) with one's voice. We follow Annset from his beginnings as he learns about himself and learns to be himself, and watch how he makes his mark on life (and vice versa).
I have to say, this book moved me to tears. Wonderfully written, very poignant: when i finished it I felt like i'd just listened to a lovely song. I don't want to spoil it so i won't go into details, but it's a really great book! I think that Card is one of very few really talented authors who can draw emotions from you, and do so in a wholesome, beautiful way. A good read.
