Xenocide and Speaker were far more boring. But the Tales of Alvin Maker and the Homecoming books are all good.

Reading Shadow of the Hegemon for the second time... what a good book that is. Smile

Yeah, Ender's Game and Shadow of the Hegemon are a lot of fun. Haven't read the Alvin Maker stuff yet, but of all the OSC I've read, I like the Ender universe the best. And even then, I always kinda liked Bean more than Ender.

Pastwatch is pretty cool, but the writing's not as tight as in Ender's Game. Interesting ideas about time travel and an alternate version of ol' Chris Columbus' story. Really gotta go back and read Ender again though...

Ender's Game is really good, as is the whole Ender universe... Bean rocks Ender's socks. The Alvin Maker series is my favorite, though. The Homecoming saga is a distant second. The Ender universe is my least favorite, actually... I'm not into sci-fi so much as fantasy. OSC writes his stuff in such a way as that it's easy to follow, unlike some sci-fi I've read... *coughCherryhcough*
