Remember -- the enemy's gate is DOWN.

I just had to comment on your quote... I LOVED Ender's Game and the other
books in the series.  And I just bought and read "Ender's Shadow", the new
one that is out this month or last month.  Also very good.  In fact, I just
got my wife interested in Ender's Game enough for her to start reading it.
She loves it.  Up until now, she has insisted that she has NO interest in
Science Fiction.  <yaaay> Another convert.  :-)

Cool. I was sure the 4th book was about all that could be done there, I
was thinking Card had pretty much mined out that theme.

Does it suffer from the run-on tendency that recent Card works seem to
exhibit? It's like, "Orson, get to the point! I'd pay just as much for a
shorter book."

(not that *I* ever go on interminably about something, oh no, not me!)
