Title: Weak Story, Characters, Politics
Review: Ender's Game and The Speaker for the Dead are worth the time. This book is not.Card thinks too much about his insight on political science. In the afterword, he brags that he's been interested in international relations since he was a kid. Unfortunately, he hasn't grown up. His plot is two dimentional and he has no understading of the history or politics regarding Russia, America, Thailand, or any other country.His characters are also thin and two dimentional. The story: Bean and all the other "child warriors" return to earth, where an evil kid somehow awaits them. The evil kid leads entire nations to kidnap on all the other smart kids in order to rule the world. Huh?Read Ender's Game and forget about this one, unless you're stuck on a 13-hour plane ride with nothing else to read.
