It's original "sequel", Speaker for the Dead, takes place many years later, after the end of Ender's Game. The other saga begins with Ender's Shadow, which references a little boy named Bean (the titular shadow) and takes place pretty much parallel to Ender's Game. That's followed by the Hegemony books which are about politics on earth, after the Bugger wars. <br /><br /> I've read Ender's Shadow and I think I found Ender a lot more sympathetic in it than I did in Ender's Game. He was just this little tiny boy, but he was wracking up quite a body count before he even reached puberty. Ender was kind of scary and what the government did to him was unconscionable. I'm still by turns amazed and horrified by those books.JoanneMarie Fausthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16751278640738482830noreply@blogger.com
