Eventhough, we still do

You write in order to change the world, knowing perfectly well that you probably can't, but also knowing that literature is indispensable to the world... The world changes according to the way people see it, and if you alter, even by a millimeter, the way...

People look at reality, then you can change it.

English books: PATHFINDER

Hey, guys! This Friday I finished reading an amazing book named PATHFINDER, which talks about the life of a boy and the time, by Orson Scott Card. It's about a boy named Rigg which lives inside the frontiers of the Wall, the only world that the people from the "place" where Rigg lives know.
Rigg lives with his Father, a man the one people name by different names, as anybody knows his real identity. As Rigg calls him "Father" others call him "Wandering Saint" or those but that's not the important fact.
Rigg can see people's paths. Father trains him instead of sending him to a normal school, and he shows him how to defend himself with different kinds of people and situations.
One day, Father dies because of an accident. His last wish towards Rigg is for him to find his sister (the one Rigg didn't even know existed) at the city of O.
While Rigg starts following his way to O he'll discover, thanks to the misfortune of a little boy and his older brother, that he, apart from seeing the past of the people, can change them. This will lead to a great adventure about how Rigg gets to know people that will help him and others that will try to kill him, as Rigg's real identity is discovered during this "TIME-TRIP".
I'm not telling you anything more, apart from that the book tells two completely different stories, that, in the end, will have something to do with each other.

Well, that's all I'm telling you, I don't wanna ruin the book for you!
