With Bean's help, he will eventually rule the world.Įarth and its society has been changed irrevocably in the aftermath of Ender Wiggin's victory over the Formics-the unity enforced upon the warring nations by an alien enemy has shattered. Peter Wiggin, Ender's older brother, has already been manipulating the politics of Earth from behind the scenes. Only Bean escapes and he turns for help to Ender's brother Peter. One by one, all of Ender's Dragon Army are kidnapped. The children of the Battle School are more than heroes they are potential weapons that can bring power to the countries that control them.

But with the external threat gone, the Earth has become a battlefield once more. Ender himself refuses to return to the planet, but his crew has gone home to their families, scattered across the globe. The enemy is destroyed, the human race is saved. The War is over, won by Ender Wiggin and his team of brilliant child-warriors. Only one problem: for Bean and Ender, the future is now. At Battle School Bean meets and befriends another future commander - Ender Wiggin - perhaps his only true rival. What better quality for a future general to lead the Earth in a final climactic battle against a hostile alien race, known as Buggers.

Bean is a genius with a magician's ability to zero in on his enemy and exploit his weakness. If Bean has learned anything on the streets, it's how to survive. But try living on the mean streets as a child begging for food and fighting like a dog with ruthless gangs of starving kids who wouldn't hesitate to pound your skull into pulp for a scrap of apple. This boxed set contains Orson Scott Card'sÃ‚Â Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, Shadow Puppets, and Shadow of the Giant.
