Publisher's summary

Orson Scott Card returns to his best-selling series with a new Ender novel, Ender in Exile.

At the close of Ender's Game, Andrew Wiggin - called Ender by everyone - is told that he can no longer live on Earth, and he realizes that this is the truth. He has become far more than just a boy who won a game: he is the Savior of Earth, a hero, a military genius whose allegiance is sought by every nation of the newly shattered Earth Hegemony. He is offered the choice of living in isolation on Eros, at one of the Hegemony's training facilities, but instead the 12-year-old chooses to leave his home world and begin the long relativistic journey out to the colonies. With him went his sister Valentine, and the core of the artificial intelligence that would become Jane.

The story of those years has never been told...until now.

Over and over again

Ender in exile is a book that I can listen to over and over and still get something new out of it. it may have a few slow parts but what book or story doesn't. If you are reading this to see if it is worth the purchase my suggestion is yes.

Good fill in the gap story but...

After reading Ender's game so many years ago I was very curious about this story. Like many other fans I was thrilled with the opportunity hear the telling. I was however, missing some of the excitement that I experienced in Card's other stories. Grateful though I am to be privileged enough to hear it.

Fantastic

Most memorable moment that made me cry was "I will never raise a hand against the son of my friends"

great gap Bridger

It was consistently preformed and fills in lots of post-enders game details. I'd recommend at least reading the shadow series before this one as there are a lot of references to it.

card's personal talk at the end was a great bonus.

A great addition to the Ender saga

As with the other Ender books, I think Card did a masterful job adding to the story. The readers did a great job as well.

Ender's Shadow is better but this is good

I was so impressed by every element of Ender's Shadow that I didn't find Enders Game as interesting or complex. Bean's character in Ender's Shadow is far more developed than Ender, himself, is in Ender's Game. The narrators are wonderful and could probably make any story interesting. They are excellent!

Not too bad

For fans of the series, it is fairly good. I would have to say that this got me to get and listen to the rest of the series.
Narration is wonderful.

Perfect! *Spoiler*

Finishing the story of Ender while continuing the story of what happened to Bean and Petra's final child! This really tied the whole set of stories together!
