Lost and Found

De: Orson Scott Card

Narrado por: Stefan Rudnicki

"Are you really a thief?"

That's the question that has haunted 14-year-old Ezekiel Blast all his life. But he's not a thief, he just has a talent for finding things. Not a superpower - a micropower. Because what good is finding lost bicycles and hair scrunchies, especially when you return them to their owners and everyone thinks you must have stolen them in the first place? If only there were some way to use Ezekiel's micropower for good, to turn a curse into a blessing. His friend Beth thinks there must be, and so does a police detective investigating the disappearance of a little girl. When tragedy strikes, it's up to Ezekiel to use his talent to find what matters most.

Master storyteller Orson Scott Card delivers a touching and funny, compelling and smart novel about growing up, harnessing your potential, and finding your place in the world, no matter how old you are.

A total listening pleasure.

This is a gentle version of Orson Scott Card's quality story telling in that there are no big battle scenes. Yet it carries a similiar suspense, and with the excellent, fully developed characters we've come to know and love in his writing. Once again, he's produced a thoughtful, uplifting, entertaining story. At one point I thought it might get to scary for me, but he told only enough to set the stage for his plot, without gratuitous abuse or violence. A master story teller.
I thought Stefan Rudnicki did an excellent job narrating and his voice worked so well for this story.

Quirky and well-written

This story is charming despite a somewhat dark storyline. I love the quirky characters who are so well drawn they seem like people you know or want to know. The clever dialogue, dramatic tension, and excellent pacing make it hard to put down. Surprises throughout. Moments I laughed out loud and moments that brought tears. Excellent narrator. Highly recommend!

Great story

Just finished and found my husband starting to listen along. It’s interesting to hear realistic, everyday dialog (with humor I guess I wish I had) within the context of sciFi. I just wish it would happen more.

Loved it!

Great story, characters, dialogue, and performance.
I need nine more words this is very dumb.

short and sweet

I loved it and I wonder if there's a sequel it's got a great premise set up as always Orson Scott card delivers

Card Writes Children and Young Adults Very Well

Loved this book. Card writes children and Young adults so well. Can't wait to read the next in the series

Must listen!

Though the protagonist is 14, one of the wittiest books I’ve ever read. Top notch banter.
Besides being a fascinating and moving story.
I cannot describe how much I loved this author’s writing style. He could make cooking up burgers as interesting as a kidnapping and I just love how intelligent he wrote all of his characters.

Amazing

Heartfelt and intriguing, such a simple concept and yet so profound. Orson Scott Card doesn’t disappoint. Throughly entertaining.

Something Different

I've been going through a phase of having trouble finishing books.... this book was different enough plot wise to hold my attention and finish it in a day.

Two different tones/feelings

3.5

I was delighted to laugh through the beginning chapters and I thought, “This is going to be a lot of fun.” However, and I’m saying this understanding it’s nearly impossible to keep someone laughing through an entire book, (except Stephen king), but the tone and seriousness completely changed in the middle and most of the end. The feeling of the beginning and at the very end weren’t compatible to me. Too bad.
