I discovered this little gem 'Ender's Shadow, at the local library and became an addict to Ender, Bean, and the Shadow series as a result. For those of you that think you have to read or listen to Ender's Game first, don't worry Bean and his story stand up all by themselves with no ...             Shadow of the Hegemon (Ender, Book 6)233 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 2001 Riveting, entertaining, suspenseful book. I bought this for Christmas for my 32 yr. old daughter. She loved it.             Xenocide (Ender, Book 3)211 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 1992 An O.K. Book in the Ender Series by Orson Scott Card This is the third book in Card's "Ender" series. After finding it hard to put the first two down, the third is a disappointment. Xenocide tries to span the known universe - with plots and sub-plots taking place on several of the 'Hundred Worlds'. It drags in a lot of places and is just too long for no purpose I can discern. I'm struggling to get through it and am not sure I'll continue with ...             Ender's Game2520 reviews Orson Scott Card Starscape, 2002 Yay for Ender! Sadly, this took me ages to read. But when I finally got around to it, I was amazed and touched beyond words. On the surface, this is a fairly typical sci-fi novel, but what makes it stand out as the modern classic that it has become is the deeply felt emotion. This remembers to be a book that is about people and how we treat one another. A war is occuring, an attack on an alien species ...             Shadow Puppets133 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor, 2002 books bought I have just recently begun buying books online. I have been amazed at the quality of the "used" books. I don't believe many of the thirty odd "used-books" I recently bought were used at all; not a broken spine in the bunch There were a half dozen or so former library books- top quality, but specially wrapped book covers... This is good way to bulk up a personal library without burning a hole in ...             A War of Gifts: An Ender Story (Ender)42 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 2007 Great short story... I wasn't really sure what to think of this book before I purchased it. I'm a huge fan of all of the Ender's Game books, and actually I'm currently reading Shadow Puppets. Despite being very non-religious, personally, I found it to be a great story of tradition and beliefs with that childhood touch. It brings back a lot of characters in Battle School, but mainly focuses on Zeck, the child who ...             Speaker for the Dead (Ender, Book 2)410 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 1994 Great book I thought this book was a very good book, It included a good deal of exciting science. It was very well written also the text flowed and was very easy to read. Most of all it was intellectually stimulating as it discussed many complex societal issues and ethical issues with out destroying the story. All in all it is a great work of fiction that is entertaining as well as sofisticated.             Ender in Exile (Ender) Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 2008 Orson Scott Card returns to his best-selling series with a new Ender novel. At the close of Ender's Game , Andrew Wiggin ? called Ender by everyone ? is told that he can no longer live on Earth, and he realizes that this is the truth. He has become far more than just a boy who won a game: he is the Savior of Earth, a hero, a military genius whose allegiance is sought by every nation of the newly shattered Earth Hegemony. He is offered the ...             Ender's Game Boxed Set: Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon18 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 2002 Enders Game Box Set I purchased this set for my nephew for his birthday. He hasn't been able to put this series down and is reading it for the second time :)             Children of the Mind (Ender, Book 4)204 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Science Fiction, 1997 Only book that has made me cry This is the only book that has made me cry. I cried when Ender died, (although he didn't die his aiua passed on to Peter) the character of Ender died. Through the series I have gotten so attatched to his character unlike any other character in any series. Through his guilt of xenocide, and hard life it was hard to read sometimess. Especially, when he had problems with Novinha in Xenocide, ...             Students Helping Students : A Guide for Peer Educators on College Campuses Steven C. Ender, Fred B. Newton Jossey-Bass, 2000 "This should be a bible for comprehensive peer leader training programs. It is a very helpful tool for those of us training peers to co-teach freshman seminars, providing both an intellectual and practical foundation."--John N. Gardner, senior fellow and distinguished professor emeritus, National Resource Center for the First-Year Experience and Students in Transition, University of South Carolina "Students Helping Students is a ...             Shadow of the Giant (Ender, Book 8) (Ender's Shadow)100 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Science Fiction, 2005 Excelent book This book ends the shadow series perfectly. I only wish there were more to read.             Applied Econometric Time Series, 2nd Edition13 reviews Walter Enders Wiley, 2003 Good intro and review of the material Having read a few books on time series analysis, Enders provides the best introduction to the area. The approach is simple and practically oriented. Explaining the basics of the area with limited use of math is beneficial. With this area developing so rapidly, a new, updated edition would be a welcome book on my shelf.             Anatomy, Histology, and Cell Biology: PreTest Self-Assessment and Review (Pretest Series)1 review Robert Klein, George C. Enders McGraw-Hill Medical, 2007 Good practice for Miniboards If your school uses miniboards for anatomy and histo, you should get this book. I thought the questions were on the harder side compared to the rest of the questions on the miniboard, so I suggest going through the BRS questions and studying first before going through the Pretest questions. If you do well on Pretest, you'll do well on the miniboards. If you don't understand a question, the ...             The Hutterites in North America John Andrew Hostetler, Gertrude Enders Huntington Thomson Brooks/Cole, 2002 This case study in cultural anthropology focuses on the day-to-day living patterns of the Hutterites, a German-dialect-speaking Christian sect whose members live communally in the Great Plains of the United States and Canada. The authors describe the Hutterite belief system and how it minimizes aggression and dissention, and protects the members against the outside world.             The Ender's Shadow Series Box Set: Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, Shadow Puppets, Shadow of the Giant ... Orson Scott Card Tor Science Fiction, 2008 This boxed set contains Ender's Shadow , Shadow of the Hegemon , Shadow Puppets , and Shadow of the Giant .   Ender's Shadow   Welcome to Battle School. Growing up is never easy. But try living on the mean streets as a child begging for food and fighting like a dog with ruthless gangs of starving kids who wouldn't hesitate to pound your skull into pulp for a scrap of apple. If Bean has learned anything on the streets, it's how to ...             Ender's Game Gift Edition (Ender Quartet)10 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 2006 Delightful I was a little leery on reading this book; I finally broke down and bought it. It is a great story, and I love it. Enders Game is defiantly a book I will bring with me into a classroom setting. I am excited to use it, and hopefully others will benefit from it the way I have.             First Meetings in Ender's Universe52 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Teen, 2004 Great way to introduce your child to Ender I read the Ender short story when it first came out (before the novel) and remembered it when I saw the novel. This collection of short stories, including the original short story version of Ender's Game is a great way to get a young teen interested in the entire set of story's as they grow.             Beyond Ender's Game: Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind31 reviews Orson Scott Card Tor Books, 2001 Wonderful Trilogy Card's prose is astounding. As the books follow Ender as he finally settles down ~3000 years after Ender's Game, Card introduces problems with multiple answers, most of which perfectly moral. These books pit stoic intelligence against caring wisdom as Ender tries to save the only planet he feels truly welcome and at home in. An excellent follow-up to Ender's Game, even for readers not too ...             The Ender Quartet Box Set: Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind (Ender Quartet) Orson Scott Card Tor Science Fiction, 2008 This boxed set contains Ender's Game , Speaker for the Dead , Xenocide , and Children of the Mind .    Ender's Game Winner of the Hugo and Nebula Awards In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as soldiers.
