Shadow of the Giant (independent reading)#4

I have just completed the book, and it ended in classic Ender fashion (no pun intended). Though the rest of the book wasn't particularly great (some of the characters were, but if they're from Battleschool or related to Ender, they should be), the last chapter was something else.

It has been mentioned in other books that Peter is sort of the "bad side" of Ender. But he most certainly came around towards the end of the book. And the monumental (no pun intended. If you read the book, you'd understand) final lines are plenty to remember the book by.

I'm on page 273 now.

Peter is now slowly gaining control of the world. Which is interesting, considering he's pretty much a villain in the earlier books. Now it's being revealed as some sort of childish pride. Peter's quickly becoming a favorite.

I'm on page 189 now.

Orson Scott Card is a very smart man, so it will be interesting seeing where he takes the storyline now. The plot is thickening, the entire world is at war, pretty much, and Peter is using Bean's superior intellect (along with his own) to try and bring the world together, while still promising Bean that they will find his children.

Shadow of the Giant (independent reading)

I'm kind of confused on exactly how this works, but I get the idea I'm just supposed to post about my reading? Well, here it goes I suppose.

Shadow of the Giant is the 4th book in the Ender's Game universe from Bean's point of view.

As of now, Bean is looking for his children, who have been spread across the planet by now deceased Achilles. I must say, it's a shame to not have Achilles in the mix here, he's one of my favorite villains in any book.
