Well it's hard to find media where it DOESN'T do that. Card writes GREAT stuff and I was not disappointed with this book after reading all of the previous Ender/Bean books. The story has become in depth and the adventure has evolved from in-space Battle School to Earth side war front. I didn't like Shadow of the Hegemon as much, I'm not sure why, maybe the politics through me off and bored me, but this one is a bit more mild on the politics. I like it that way ;) Good read, I'm continuing with Shadow of the Giant and the waiting for Ender in Exile =) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Best characters in SciFi today, strong series. *by Z***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2002* Orson Scott Card is a master of writing in a world of the future while still keeping the issues and characters believable. He's a rarity in the genre in that his characters are the story, not the technology. And no one is writing characters much better than Card these days.This one gets a four, but only because it doesn't pack the same punch, either in character developement or in deftness of plot, as Ender's Game or Speaker for the Dead. This doesn't mean you shouldn't read it, and taken as a whole, the Shadow series is shaping up to be a little more mature and is strongly on course. Ender's series tended to ramble towards the end, but this series seems to stay strong.The moral issues are deftly addressed, but we're left to make our own conclusions. The peoples and cultures are well done and accurate, and they make the book very appealing to me as a person who loves to travel and to *feel* new places.The plot is interesting and involving, and the book is very easy to read. The pacing is never ponderous, and I had it finished in 2 days, in spite of my work schedule.All in all, Card's books are strongly recommended, especially in the light of all the terrible SciFi that you see on shelves today. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great book *by C***1 on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2023* Yet another great book in the Ender's series (shadow series). If you are reading this series, you won't be disappointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/15788099-shadow-puppets-the-shadow-series-mass-market-paperback-june-16](https://www.desertcart.us/products/15788099-shadow-puppets-the-shadow-series-mass-market-paperback-june-16) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
