Ender in Exile by Orson Scott Card
4.5 stars out of 5
A new Ender book from Orson Scott Card? He just keeps them coming. I had no idea another one was even in the works until I started browsing recently, and lo and behold, it arrived as a present under the tree.
This Ender book takes place mostly between chapters 14 and 15 of "Ender's Game". It did puzzle me a few times to try to remember when things had occurred and whether this story line was the same as that story line or if this had been mentioned in a different book. The puzzling was an annoyance, but Card does include a chapter in the end explaining some of it.
The book itself is a joy to read. I had a little trouble getting into it, since I knew what was coming, but once it got to the point of the story, it was a great read. Great characters, decent plot and as always, well orchestrated. Highly recommended to all Ender fans.
