OSC is one such author.

It's not too bad, it's just that in comparison to the first novel it's denser.

Why don't you like fiction with some philosophy in there? It seems that if any genre is ripe for mining it it would...

The first novel is an extremely light read, but the groundwork is laid out for some of the series' more dense, philosophical elements.

speaking of which, let's get that sucker in here

Don't let the naysayers deter you, Speaker is a great novel. Just know that Ender is much, much older in that. It's great to see him grapple with the ethical ramifications of his exploits in EG.

I was kinda lukewarm on Shadow Puppets to be honest. Is Shadow of the Giant better?

I left off on Speaker for the Dead in Ender's Saga. You guys are saying I should cry off the rest the series?

I don't think I can do that. :( Not knowing how Ender's journey ends would kill me.

Interesting. Did you read all of the novels in both the Bean and Ender sagas ? Shadow of the Giant, Ender in Exile, etc. ?

Wow, can't believe this thread has been dormant for two years !

Anyway, I just picked up Shadow Puppets last night. It's been a little under 3 years since I read the last book in the Bean series...

Are any of you guys reading the Ender's Game/Shadow comics? They're fucking awesome!


Bean :wub:

Excellent! Be sure to branch out to Bean's story as well, if you haven't done so already. He is more than worthy of his own series. :D

Are you planning on continuing with the series?

I didn't think it was /that/ predictable, I myself didn't guess what what the twist was going to be until a few pages prior to the revealing. After I read the twist though I thought of how much sense...

From Wikipedia (in regards to the first book in the series, Ender's Game) -

Ender's Game (1985) is a well-known science fiction novel by American author Orson Scott Card.[1] The book...

Alright, so now I have Enders Game, Enders Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, and Speaker for the Dead under my belt.

Which one do I need to tackle next? Shadow Puppets?

Other books...you mean Bean's series?

I just started Speaker For The Dead a few days ago - it's starting off really well, the only thing I don't like is that the first person narration jumps from character to character within the same...

I still remember the first time I read the ending to Enders Game - it warped my mind. And yes, Bean kicks major ass :D

with longaniza?


I'm going to pick up Shadow Puppets as soon as I finish The Hobbit and Duma Key. :)
