Shakespeare and Ganges
How long was Ender on Eros before his colony ship left? Orson Scott Card doesn't mention it, but, from the events of the Shadow saga it must have been a while because Virlomi, at least to my limited understanding of relativistic space flghtt, would have had to leave for Ganges before Ender left for ...

Jayelle actually has a pretty good point. Why read them chronologically? I read them SORT OF in the order they came out (I wouldn't recommend reading them in this order.) EG --> EiE --> ES --> SftD --> Xeno --> CotM --> SotH --> SP --> SotG --> FM --> WoG Of course, if you want to read them in trul...

I suppose I should scrub my original argument and start all over again. Yeah, I think that's a good idea. I guess I should be saying at least for me, Andrew Wiggin is still the hero he was in Ender's Game, though almost xenocide is not a very heroic action, is it? I can see, however, someone thinkin...

You don't think Ender could have successfully commanded an army of vets? I don't? I think I do, in fact I'm sure of it. The revelations about Bean in ES doesn't really diminish Ender as a hero. For one thing, Andrew Wiggin didn't have to listen to Bean, but he would be an idiot not to listen. So En...

Bean's view does not introduce us as much as brings a whole new angle to the story of Ender and his biggest moment in life. No. It completely retcons the entire character of Ender, making him into some helpless idiot who gets by on Bean's behind the scenes intelligence. More or less. Which is partl...

Re: shadow series is better
why do people favor the ender series over the shadow series? in my opinion, the ender series is very good and full of science fiction ideas that i honestly pray will come true. but if you look at the way the world is going right now, the shadow series is extremely accurate. plus the characters are ...
