I see. Well that changes my opinion of you entirely. I can see what you mean, how you read the original Ender's Game that was there first and you know and love and there's no hint of that relationship there, so when people bring it up it seems iffy. I didn't really have that issue. All the Shadow se...

Phew. Thanks guys, I had a bad feeling nobody was going to side with me. :[ I agree with all of you guys. Whether you like it or not, anything OSC writes is canon. Even in the cases where he changes something he did in Ender's Game to make more sense in Ender in Exile or something, no matter how muc...

Question about Ender and Bean
Dunno if this has already been asked. If so, feel free to yell at me and such, but... At what point is Ender told the truth about Bean? Some point in EiE, I'd assume? I mean, I was skimming EiE today and saw an email from Graff to Ender about Bean's genetic condition, his marriage to Petra, and the ...

................... Yeeeeah, I meant Shadows in Flight. That was a stupid typo. Can't believe I didn't realize that. -__- There, edited my post. Thanks for pointing that out. EiE spoiler: Yeah, I did catch that. I thought about it. Maybe when Peter selected No Picture he only made it so that Peter c...

I finished it a couple of days ago. Just to give a heads up to people who haven't read it or are still reading it, it seems like EiE didn't turn out how even Card expected it. The book doesn't focus on Ganges primarily and Jane isn't even introduced, so don't get the wrong idea. I mean, the book jac...

As tempting as it is to make a sarcastic post, considering I seem to be one of the few here who have read both Artemis and Ender series, I guess I might as well answer seriously to please the guy. Ender would win in most situations, battle or not. Just to sum up Artemis for those who haven't read th...

Think about the book The Hegemon. That was for a world leader. Dunno why, but I think it'd only really be effective if the leader/politican was generally hated or really generally loved. Like, to either extreme. Not in between. Because then the absolute truth and history would give some cause for th...

Random, not about the covers: I wonder if they'll reference Ender's ansible conversation with Peter, like they did a tiny bit in EG and in SotG. I kind've hope they do, but at the same time I hope they don't. (because it kind've spoils Peter's character development if you haven't read the Shadow ser...

I know, I can't even tell what those ship-space pictures are supposed to be illustrating. And they do look almost exactly, EXACTLY, the same in concept. I'm not saying that the covers should show pictures of the Buggers, Piggies, or the faces of the humans. I know that would ruin the imagination and...

Investment Counselor showed how Ender decided to BECOME a Speaker for the Dead, an occupation/cult that arose after his own story he wrote many years ago. It didn't show psychologically how Ender went from traumatized to calm and experienced. And while this may show Ender becoming more wise and expe...

Awesome, a release date. Not THAT far away. None of the Ender covers really wow me. They're too vague and all too similar to each other. I kind of liked SotG's. I'm really looking forward to Shadows in Flight more than Ender's Exile. But, I'll still probably have the book a week or so after its rele...

Well, also, brain cells cease growing, the body ceases growing, and the learning curve begins to slow down and decrease as one becomes an adult. A pre-teen to teenage aged commander would be in their prime state. For instance, a young boy's body would be able to stand all the constant battles every ...

Yeah, there's two series. Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind and Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, Shadow Puppets, Shadow of the Giant. There's a lot of anti-Shadow series people around, although I personally loved them. Whether you think they're the best thing i...

Would the FPE work in real life?
[Spoilers for Shadow series]This is a bit of a two part question. I was curious to see what your opinions would be on this, Pweb. 1. Would the FPE (meaning, one government body to rule the entire Earth,) actually, realistically, be able to rise to power and maintain power in real life? The Ender/Sha...

As much as it pains me to just throw Valentine aside, I think this decision is pretty much a Peter vs. Ender choice. I recognize Valentine's accomplishments and importance, but it's easier to see, remember, and debate the accomplishments of the 2 boys. This is a pretty hard choice. Ender did indeed ...

Colonel Graff
I don't know if there's already a topic like this, but, whatever. Graff is such an overlooked character, in my opinion. And there's a reason for it. Reason being, in Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow, he's such a mysterious, seemingly cruel manipulator and puppeteer. They make him seem like the bad gu...
