Plot or Character Driven: Plot

This is a direct sequel to Book 1, so I would read it as Book 2. It does give some spoilers for Bean’s series though so maybe read that series before this book?

Although I don't think it was necessary for the series, I really enjoyed this book. Didn't really like the few chapters where we didn't follow Ender.

Last book I will read from Ender. Truly touched by the author's unfortunate political perspective

This book was good, but it didn't have the usual exciting spark or twist at the end that you get from the older books in the series. I was very disappointed with how Achilles the 2nd was handled. He didn't seem particularly intelligent, even in his own mind and was too easily resolved.

Ender retakes his rightful place at the center of the Enderverse.



Card produces a novel that surpasses many of his others in quality. I hope that he continues to flesh out the "exile years" of Ender's life.

These definitely aren't as good as Ender's Game, but still fun to read.

This is my favorite Ender book. I love that it brings in Valentine and Bean's family.

Nothing happens. It’s just a bunch of discussions as they travel.
