Review of "The Lost Gate" by Orson Scott Card

Brief Summary: The Lost Gate tells the story of Danny North and his discovery of a hidden power which opens up his world.

Long Summary: Danny North is an outcast in his family due to his lack of god-like powers. When he plays a prank, on cousins he is in charge of watching, the family threatens to kill him. Danny figures out he is a gatefather and knows he will be hunted by the families if they find out.  He escapes from the compound and starts a life on his own. He develops relationships along the way as he explores his new powers.

Overall I really enjoyed the book. I was excited to continue the series with "The Gate Thief".

Rating: 4.5/5
