I takes place between Ender's Game and Speaker for the Dead, so it is after the Shadow Series.

Guys I'm not sure you should be reading this. After all, it was written by a Mormon...

If I ignored everything done by someone with beliefs different from my own I wouldn't have much to read. He's a good writer even though I'm really against his recent flip-flop on his political opinions.

Haha, don't know much about him except that he wrote the book.

But, really. I suggest you follow Steven's course of action.

I just finished this book and want my time back. The whole time reading it I kept wondering what the fuck happened to the established timeline. At the end Card has to insert a chapter that basically says he's a dumbfuck who can't keep events straight and all the 'new' content in the book was just revised events we read about in other books. I'm really disappointed by all this and I don't think I'll be reading him much anymore.

I was wondering why I'd never gotten around to reading this (I bought it when it came out). I think I just felt like the series was already over for Ender... I guess this was a tack on as I'd presumed?

Yea, it was completely unnecessary, full of typos, obviously rushed, and full of awful dialogue.

I thought it was okay. He wrote ender's game 20 years ago and I read it at least 5 so I didn't really notice any of the discrepancies- and when he points them out I understand his argument (I mean, if he is being sincere instead of just trying to make 'mo money). Nothing was really that interesting in the book, however, as it was mostly about self-reflection and the main "enemy" was an admiral who wanted to be governor instead of Ender.

The last like... chapter? involving Bean's final son is kind of silly and was unnecessary imo- I mean hell that could of been a book all unto itself. Who knows, maybe he'll make it one,
