The book that got me off Card was Lost Boys. Incredibly gripping and moving while I read it; for a while I had it on my top 10 favorite books ever. It took me a while (days? weeks?) to realize that I'd been manipulated into sympathy for a repugnant worldview. I don't remember the details. I think my brain has blocked it out.
