I greatly enjoyed this trip back into Ender's world. I think I read this one years ago in late middle school or early high school, but I had forgotten much of the detail. I now badly want to reread Ender's Game and compare the stories. If you like Orson Scott Card's work, this is a good one.

Overall enjoyed this read, it was very fun experiencing a story I loved to read from a totally different perspective. By the end of the book I became less interested. Certain passages started to feel like their only purpose was to set up for the next books, or to inform readers about information learned organically in Enders Game.
