    Seems awfully short. This felt like half a story.
  • Not worth it

    I'm a big fan of OSC, but this is far from his best work. It's like he wrote it in a hurry to close the gap between the timelines in the Enders Game and Shadow series. Hopefully the next and final book is an improvement on this.

    Good read. It's just way to short. Paying full price for a book that I finished I'm two hours.
  • Good story

    I am not disappointed in the book itself - I found a good read, and worth the money, despite its relatively short length. However, this "enhanced edition", is very simply incomplete, as in missing pages the physical book has. I noticed this because I read up to chapter 5 in the bookstore before buying the iBook. Look for yourself, there are a few pages omitted in the "enhanced" version. I didn't do a full check, but I have no doubt there is more missing. For this reason alone, I do feel rather cheated for buying the iBook at full price.

    Paying full price for a short story. Tskk tskkk. Definitely not Card's best work.
  • Full price for half the "novel."

    I should've read the reviews prior to purchasing this book. The story isn't rich enough to justify the price of a "novel" that's more than half the length of any of the other titles in the Ender/Shadow series. It's a nice short story at best.
  • Kind of puzzling

    Fragmented and short. The enhancements are not iPhone friendly. Maybe on an iPad. I don't begrudge him the price of his work but I almost felt I was reading an outline of a much longer work. As it was it really did feel like a short story.
  • Over priced and anticlimactic

    The book is way to short for the price of admission. I won't spoil the ending but I expected better. Card is my favorite writer, but this one could have been so much better! Let bean go out with a hurrah!
  • Disappointingly short.

    Book ends poorly and more like a lead into another. 'Enhancements' nothing particularly special. I do not recommend this book as its more of a short story and not well done.
