I've never felt the urge to read it. Not sure why not--I didn't find out about Card's views till after the book had gone by me. It just didn't happen. I think I read Songmaster many years ago and found it depressing, but whether that was the reason or something else I don't know. Picked up the DVD of the film of EG from a charity shop last year, just out of curiosity, but the disc was damaged and wouldn't play.

The filksongs are good though. :)
