Shadow of the Giant, by Orson Scott Card

Posted by: John In: Books

I’m a sucker for books in the Ender’s Game series by Orson Scott Card — I’ll read just about anything that Card writes in this one. Even though the books that are coming out these days aren’t all that great as science fiction, aren’t all that great as novels. But Card is really good at creating a momentum & books that are extremely quick to read. This one is about Peter as Hegemon and Bean as Giant — it’s a fine book, but nothing to get too excited about.
