I know OSC is a very good author and I was hoping to read as many of his series I could find. I'm read the Ender/Shadow series right now. What are some other series I should read?

Homecoming.

Alvin Maker.

Women of Genesis.

Recommended in that order, or switch the top two if you want to switch to fantasy for a bit.

Well, these two are stand alone books, not series...but they are must reads:

Enchantment
Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus

IMO,

Best series by OSC: Women of Genesis

Best stand alone novel by OSC: Enchantment

I recommend WoG last ONLY because a person after a new Speculative Fiction series may not enjoy the religious fiction aspects until getting a bit more acquainted with the author. They are marvelous, of course.

Yeah, so read Enchantment first and that way you won't have to read an entire series to get acquainted. [Wink]
