I probably won't read the prequels. I enjoyed the Ender series and Bean series, but the other books he's come out with since that fill in backstory could have been left unwritten. I think he's just...
Yes, but I have a dislike of movie trailers that show all the best stuff and then when you get to the movie everything is either average or something you've seen. I just don't want it to be one of...
Hi, Harrison!
I posted the trailer in the movie trailer thread, too. I think it looks amazing, but I'm a little confused because it looks like they put the ending in the trailer?
"The mining ship El Cavador..."
Mining for royalties, I suppose.
Keep going. Yeah, it's not the best, but it's not so freaking awful it's unreadable.
Yeah, I'm not thrilled with Ender (just looking at that kid, I want to punch him in the face) but Graff, Valentine, Mazer and Anderson look great. I also love that the kids are actually multiracial,...
He kind of counters that by saying the Battle School is a collection of all the brilliant kids on earth, and that's who he's following. He doesn't have much of a reason to bring in the 8 billion...
I liked parts of the Bean series very much, while others seemed to drag/be confusing/contradict Ender's Game. So I'd say they're worth a read, but I can't positively guarantee you'll enjoy it. I did.
I think Card is less obnoxious in his religious writings than most authors, and some of his ideas are pretty interesting. Luckily he had enough sense to leave his homophobia out of the books.
What...
I don't know if any of you knew about this, but I saw that Card recently wrote another Ender book, about his time between Ender's Game and Speaker.
I'm debating if I want to find it or not, it...
I did not know there were comics.
I'm intrigued, but don't want to spend a ton of money.
I just found out Card wrote yet ANOTHER Ender book, about the time in between Ender's game and Speaker. I'm interested but afraid it's going to suck.
I finished all the Ender books and read the first two of the Bean series.
Ender's Game is still the best. No question.
Ender's Shadow was pretty good and it answered some things. Shadow of the...
I just read Speaker for the Dead, I really enjoyed it, although things got a little too technical for me at the end. I'm not sure if I just didn't grasp it, or if it didn't really make sense and he...
I kind of thought
It was going to be a cliffhanger, like he wins and then the buggers attack something or other and cut to next book where he saves humanity, or at least starts the process. I dunno....
Yep! Matt found a good deal on Amazon and got the next three I think. Just gotta wait....
HE IS. ><
And yeah, it did make sense... but I didn't see it coming. I kind of feel like I should have, but I guess I was just so focused on "what's gonna happen next!" that I wasn't really...
Just read Ender's Game for the first time! I really liked it. I got pissed though, Matt does this thing where he says "oh, I predicted the twist like halfway through, it's pretty predictable" and...
