Children of the Mind: The Conclusion of the Enders Quartet Audiobook

" I thought there were a lot of inconsistencies between this book and the others in the series. It was also a little weird and hard to get into BUT I felt like I had to finish the series "

" I liked this much better than Xenocide, and I think that's in part simply relief that the series was done by now. It was definitely better written than Xenocide, but it really did feel like the second half of one story. "

" A little too thinky/theoretical for my liking. Though I'm happy to have a good ending for the series. "

" This book finished off the series with a very beautiful and peaceful atmosphere. Love was lost and given in so many ways, till the end. "

" Wraps up the whole series nicely... but after reading the first book (loved it) and the second (loved it but a little less), the third/fourth books were a little bit of a letdown. It got less 'action-y' and a lot more philosophical - not that it's a bad thing but it's just not what I thought I was getting into when I started the first book. Now that they are making Ender's Game into a movie, I wonder how far they will go with the books? "

" An interesting end to a great Saga! Certainly many twists and turns, my advice is to enjoy them and where they take you! "

" It was a good book. I enjoyed the plot line well enough. A few characters annoyed me every now and then, but not as bad as in Xenocide. Very thought provoking, that is for sure. There were a few plot lines that were never closed, I didn't expect them to be, but I really with they had been. I was super curious to see how they would turn out. I liked this book about as much as the rest of the series. "

" I can't stand Quara! She is so awful. But I found myself agreeing with Wang Mu at the very end when she tried to befriend her. "

" interesting way to take the series, the entire story was quite abstract, but Orson Scott Card was able to use his literary genius to convey it in a way that was both believable, and fascinating. "

" Final days of Ender. Trying to save Lusitania and a second Xenocide. Tied it all together. "

" A proper ending to the series. The ethical side of these books are amazing--to steal from the back of the book, they explore the evolution of human ethics. This is a fascinating exploration of what may very well be facing humans some day. "

" Love it. Like most of Card's Ender series, I'm fascinated by the tale, characters and worlds visited. Unfortunately this is the end of Andrew Wiggin. Looking forward to more of Card's work, but I'll miss Ender. "

" This book was worth reading to conclude the series, but it isn't a Ender's Game. "

" I great end to Ender and his pals. He's a toolbox mormon, but a great writer. He wraps up the saga well, but it could have been a touch more thoughtfull. He lost his focus and had to tie up too many loose ends too quickly. "

" Good ending to the series. I really enjoyed the Ender's Saga (all four books). Ender is the man! "

" In my mind, I group these books with Sherri S. Tepper for some reason. "

" An absolutely brilliant installment from this particular series. In my opinion, the best of the series. Card's characters speak volumes of the human condition. I couldn't put this one down; well worth the read. "

" Better than Xenocide, but not as good as the first two of the quartet. I like how OSC gives explanations for how his fictional gadgetry works. I am glad, however, that the quartet is done. "

" A lot of existencialism, but he keeps coming out with new issues left unresolved. I guess he knows a lot about science "

" again, not as good as Book 1 and 2 but if you've read the first 3 than you have to finish with the 4th. "

" If there was a way to give this 0 stars, I would. Dreadful. "

" You can't go wrong with this book if you like Orson Scott Card. I do, and I couldn't put it down. "

" Not bad. A good conlusion to the Ender's Saga. Or is it? "

" Finally some tying up of the loose ends. Great saga/epic series. "

" Unfortunately the weakest of the series, but it does tie up most of the threads explored in the previous 4. Very enjoyable but not earth-shaking. "

" Recently started re-reading the series that I never finished. As a kid I only liked Ender's Game, but I really appreciate the deeper though that was put into the rest of the series, I never got through this book earlier, and struggled through the previous two, Speaker and Xenocide. "

" Not a bad ending, better than I thought it would be. "

" Now this is how you end a Science Fiction epic satisfyingly. The ending chapters here redeem the sort of overly-implausible events of Xenocide. "

" an interesting book, although parts of it were muddled by ridiculously abstract quantum physics or whatever exactly this book was talking about. "

" The weird metaphysics just got to me in this one. "

" Terrible. Trapped. Those are the two words that come to mind when I think about this book. I was trapped into reading it and it turned out to be terrible. Read it if you want to know what happens to Ender Wiggin. "

" Ender's Saga started out so promising, but by the 4th book, I could barely get through it. In fact, this last one was so full of philosophizing that it convinced me to NOT read the follow up Shadow series :-( "

" Nice resolution to Ender's Saga - felt like he kind of puttered off at the end. Perhaps in order to have additional books (maybe he does and I have yet to realize it)... "

" I think Card jumped the shark with this one. Definitely the least of the 1st 4 Ender books. "

" Story line is starting to get a bit thin. "

" Another just mediocre addition the the ender series and not the best book written by orson scott card. "
