I kind of disagree. The way I look at it Ender's enemy was not just Stilson, but the whole gang of children, I don't think his overboard aggression and infliction of harm on Stilson was just for Stilson, but to make anyone in Stilson's group fear what Ender could do. If Ender had only slightly injur...

I randomly picked up this book out of the Science fiction section at my high-school library many many years ago. I started reading in one class and couldn't stop. My statistics teacher had to get on to me for reading in class because I just couldn't put the story down. I then started reading again w...

Here's an interesting thought... If Jane can move ships to anywhere in the universe (supposedly) without dealing with space time then technically she can send a ship to meet Bean (assuming Jane got some information somehow) and avoid the whole relativity thing (I'm assuming that Bean sets out on his...

Why not? If the human race can make religions based on six-armed women and fat men as well as aliens, then why not off stories as well? It really is not all that far of a stretch of the imagination to think that it could turn into a religion. All you need is enough charismatic and influential people...

Maybe this is a problem with S-10's locke? I have a 2001 S-10 and my fuel gauge is busted as well. I'll fill it up and it will say full, then drop to empty randomly and then bounce back to full. Needless to say I don't ever let the needle get past a quarter of a tank before I fill up again. And you ...

I think you are missing the point. Bean was the better strategist because of those genetic enhancements. Ender is and will always be the better commander in my opinion becuase you don't command well without leading well. It doesn't matter how great your strategies are if you can't get your soldiers ...

Now that I think about it more in depth, I believe you are correct. But even so, couldn't you still consider Bean's task force to be a special 6th toon? In effect still making him a toon leader as he was responsible for training those in his force (even if Ender was to be informed of what they were ...

Sticking it out - halfway through... I am starting to like it a little more, a couple of scenes still feel wrong for the characters, but on the whole I am starting to get into it. The book is also filling in some of the plot holes from SOtG and bring up so new potential mysteries as well. I'll have ...

I actually enjoyed this book - it read and felt structured just like an OSC novel should. I was actually very interested in the whole genetic enhancement/healer hoo-hah.

I played it on Xbox, and loved it. There are some really challenging parts in the game and I think the story is well written. There is also some cool moves you can do when chaining different powers together. You should at least give this game a shot! My avatar is actually from the cover of Advent Ri...

I don't really use an MP3 player anymore, but I have found a music application that I am fairly happy with at work. After I downloaded Winamp recently I noticed that there was a preset for AOL Radio.

Bean isn't a leader. No one would follow him. He could never become hegemon in the firstplace. I agree with you that he never could have become hegemon, but Bean is a leader. Not a political one mind you, but a military one. We saw in SP how good of a leader Bean was with the men he was given to tr...
