Card actually wrote Ender's Game as mostly a lead-in to Speaker for the Dead. After that, there is Xenocide and Children of the Mind, which are worth reading but aren't (in my opinion) nearly as good. Then there's Ender's Shadow, which as noted here, is the same story from Bean's perspective, which is followed by Shadow of the Hegemon, Shadow Puppets, and Shadow of the Giant, I think. Ender's Shadow is very good, but Card's latest work has become very preachy and has lost a great deal of what made it so great.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253232837359768277.post-78581364795450451322008-09-01T09:19:00.000+02:002008-09-01T09:19:00.000+02:00Charley - I hope you enjoy it!raidergirl - ooh, En...Charley - I hope you enjoy it!<BR/><BR/>raidergirl - ooh, Ender's Shadow sounds interesting, I hand't heard of it!<BR/><BR/>nymeth - I'm looking forward to reading Speaker for the Dead!<BR/><BR/>mari - I think you should! :-)joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952558113054391317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253232837359768277.post-68805878760103500772008-08-26T14:56:00.000+02:002008-08-26T14:56:00.000+02:00Hi, Joanna!Check my blog for an award you've recei...Hi, Joanna!<BR/><BR/>Check my blog for an award you've received!<BR/><BR/>LezlieLezliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747969193923246804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253232837359768277.post-39333769099447472872008-08-20T23:24:00.000+02:002008-08-20T23:24:00.000+02:00My husband has this series of books.

I think these books are good and I don't really like SF books at all. Card just writes such great characters and plot that it doesn't matter.<BR/><BR/>I took a year between books. I'm not sure I'd read them back to back, but the next one was very good. Also, there is another book I haven't read, Ender's Shadow that tells the same story but it's Bean's story. I'd like to read that one too.raidergirl3https://www.blogger.com/profile/03629915042716259349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253232837359768277.post-90631720848808115282008-08-20T15:28:00.000+02:002008-08-20T15:28:00.000+02:00Ender's Game is high up on my TBR list - I'm reall...Ender's Game is high up on my TBR list - I'm really looking forward to reading it.Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06131924592639030353noreply@blogger.com
