It is a collection of essays looking at Ender’s Game from new perspectives. I give it only three stars, because it has nearly no value to readers who aren’t familiar with Card’s classic novel. That said, I enjoyed this book, and it gave me a few new ways to read Ender next time. no reviews | add a review

The quality of the entries is quite varied. The Q&A sections are trite. One question that brought a guffaw was "If you could re-write Ender's Game, what would you do differently?" Card has consistently re-written - the novel from the short story, the Shadow parallel novels. He can't seem to leave his creations alone.
I had to read this through, though, because I do value the original short story to a high degree, and the novel to a somewhat lesser degree. There are some thoughtful and even genius critiques within the collection. I'll come back and speak more with the book in front of me. ( )
