You could also try to compare either of those to Boys from Brazil by Ira Levin.- Moy prolly to The Giver. Both are about boys being prepared to take positions of leadership- Jonas in The Giver to take the role of the Reciever, and The Boys to take over the role of the army, and bring Germany to power, as they have been genetically modified to do.

Anyone that reads Ender's Game and then plans to read the sequals needs to deffinatly heed Ginkasa's words. They are still science fiction, but take a completely different path than Ender's Game.

When I look back on Ender's Game, then look at the last three books, I have trouble choosing my favorite, and then decide I cant because the last three are so different than the first one. They are all very powerful works of literature, and demand attention.

Ender's Game was probably one of the saddest books I had ever read, although most people don't realize it. You really have to think about it to see how sad it is.

The last three books in the quadrilogy will really make you think though...they bring up some interesting questions.

It's the third book in the Shadow quadrilogy, right after Shadow of the Hegemon.

There is one more book due out that he's writing, called "Shadow of the Giant."

This is entirely out of topic but the 21st of this month The Seventh and Final book in Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series, entitled "The Dark Tower" will be released.

I'm feeling bittersweet about this.

On one hand it's another book in the series, on the other it's the last book in the series.

Apparently he's supposed to stop writing after this book. I don't believe that, but that's what he says.
