Negative Positive
Title: Extremely annoying.
Review: When I first heard Orson Scott Card was writing another book that took place in the Ender's Game universe I was exited, to say the least. After reading the first four chapters of Ender's Shadow, attainable at the official web site of OSC, I ,almost literally, couldn't wait. Now that I've read the novel cover to cover I am thoroughly disappointed. It does not complement Ender's Game, which is my favorite book, it tries to overpower it. Although Ender's Shadow never contradicts Ender's Game, the two books often disagree.Many of the reviews that gave this book five stars were done by people who had read only the first four chapters, which were extremely good. This latest Orson Scott Card novel shows that while OSC's grasp on scientific principles has increased, his knowlage of what makes a great novel has dramaticly decreased.
Is the review positive or negative?
