Ender-rants

Its not often that an author gets to write the same story twice from two different points of view, but thats exactly what author Oson Scott Card managed to do with his epic Ender stories. First of all he writes a trilogy dealing with Ender Wiggins, the child prodigy that saved the Earth from alien invasion, and then many years later he goes back and writes the same story from the viewpoint of Bean, Ender's diminutive sidekick, and surpasses the original story. This duo is my number 8). Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow. Just on a side note, Card has quickly become one of my favorite authors as I have read just about everything he has written and also I had the honor of meeting him in person at a book signing at the local Border's store. He was a great guy and really appeared to care about his fans. He also took the opportunity to announce the Ender's Game/Ender's Shadow movie, coming soon.
