Shadow of the Hegemon proved to be just as engaging and well written as the other
Ender books.
Orson Scott Card shows his wordy, genius stuff, once again.
The plot revolves around
Bean,
Petra,
Achilles, and of course the future Hegemon,
Peter. He also brings in several
Battle School graduates to spice up the plot. Card goes into a detailed, literary game of
Risk. I have learned more about
military strategy reading these books than the
texts they supply you in
history class.
Military briefings aside, Card used his usual
flair for making you see the insides of his
characters as well as the outward
ramifications of their actions.
How many more novels can he write to add to this series? The greatest thing about them is they keep bringing up new
perspectives of the same story. The story of Ender and the world he is born into is such a great universe!
Now, Mr. Card, how about a book focusing on
Valentine?
