I was thinking about getting this for my son, who loved Ender’s Game. I might actually still buy it from him, as he is at an age where he is very appreciative of smarmy, smart mouthed kids. Lucky me! Thanks for the insightful review on this one.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure Shadows in Flight is only in the ‘he’s announced that he’s working on it’ stage, with nothing definite past that, but I’m intrigued by how it’s supposed to tie everything together. I’ll definitely be giving it a shot, though — but maybe I won’t get my hopes up. :)

Doh! Shadows in Flight, huh? Haven’t heard about it until now. I’ll read any Ender story, just because I love the character, and the premise in general. My stance with Card’s later books has been to expect disappointment. That way, if it’s not total crap, you win! Don’t know about picking up the ‘Children of the Mind’ storyline though. That book, and towards the end of Xenocide as well, got way too metaphysical for me.

I’ve been meaning to ask you if you’ve read this, because I thought about buying it just before Christmas. I ended up deciding against it only because it wasn’t available in paperback, and wouldn’t match the rest of the books in the series. Now I’m not sure that I want to even read it, especially if it really can’t compare. And that leaves me wondering how Shadows in Flight is going to turn out.
