_The Worthing Saga_ might be a close second, though it's an collection and not
technically a "book" per se.  And then there's _Folk on the Fringe_, but that
one's pretty specific to Mormon culture.

I loved The Folk OF the Fringe.  I'd never read Card until I recieved that book
as a Christmas present about 10 years ago.  I had never seen anything
like his style of writing, and I liked it.  Recently I've read (all but the
last half of Earthborn) the Homecoming series.  I must say that I enjoyed the
first two books, The Memory of Earth and The Call of Earth, much more than the
other 2.5 books, but I enjoyed that series as well.  Thanks to
BarnesandNoble.com and their free books coupons, I have about a half dozen
other OSC books on my shelf waiting to be read.
