A decade later.. It has been ten years since i found the worn and locally abused copy of Enders's Game in my school's library. Through all that time i related with young ender as most young adult readers invariably do, and relived his youth all throughout my own. In ten years i've purchased almost as many copies and either lent and lost to friends or given as gifts. But in all that time i have never attempted to pick up these new (and final) chapters to Ender's tale. In truth i never wanted the story to end. And a part of me wanted Ender immortalized as the world weary child who had to conquer himself to defeat someone who was never his enemy. It was a beautiful, exhilarating, frightening story but it wasn't where Card wanted Ender to live forever. Instead he gave us the speaker, xeonocide, and children of the mind as a conclusion that in truth could have been told through the eyes of anyone. But Card, again, gave us Ender. Children of the Mind is a constant flurry of philosophy, scientific extrapolation, arguments that shake your morality to its core, and perhaps most beautifully of all, a genius blend of our history as a people and a plausible sci-fi future. This is not the fast paced tale of boy genius vs. the world as Card's bean's trilogy but a series that will be in your mind long after the final pages fall.

As a child. I first read these books as a child of ten, and then in into my teens and twenties. They captured my imagination and sent me hurtling through the stars at the speed of thought. Thanks to iBooks I have found this series of books again and still love them just as much as I remembered then.

A reward after reading with Xenocide.. Xenocide made me wary of reading this one but Card has dialed back the heavy metaphysical musings and moves the story along at a much better clip. He finishes with a heartfelt and fitting conclusion to the Ender Saga.

OSC is the man. Read Enderverse books. Read them all.

Easier to follow than Xenocide.. Doesn't quite end the way that you want it to. Feels like there are so many more unanswered questions, but maybe that's how life is supposed to be. Once you figure out one problem or mystery; there's another question posing itself afterward. It's a nice philosophical read; more so than your typical sci fi.

Horrible book. Full of such turmoil and self hatred that makes it unreadable.

Children of the Mind. Honestly it's worth buying. This series has provided me with some great moments and I would definitely recommend someone pick up this book. A highly underrated and not talked about sci-fi/philosophical series.

Amazing. The second best book, not far off from Ender's Game. Such a great ending to the quartet.

Is Jane's last name 'Austen'?. Enjoyable read with all the great and brilliant sci-fi mind blowing aspects I enjoy, but also with a heaping helping of the long pining looks and heaving bosoms as the author plays the role of Mrs Bennet and matchmaker for all the main characters. That's not a criticism since I enjoyed Pride and Prejudice as well. Also despite this being the last o the Ender saga, there turns out at the end to be a juicy possibility of another gripping followup.

Good Ending. This is the end of the story of Ender. Although it seems to rush forward to the end it's a must read

Good story. Good story
