Shadow Of The Giant

Haven't posted on here in forever! Anywho, just finished a series and wanted to comment to more then one person about it. ;)

The series is the parallel series to the Enders Game Series, the one about Bean that started with Ender's Shadow. It was an awesome series by the way, and I recommend everyone read it. Read both.

Anyway, if you didn't know, the last book in the series came out a month or 3 ago. It basically wraps up everything on earth regarding Bean and Peter, that we more or less knew from reading the Enders Game series. When I started it and saw it was supposed to be the last book, I wasn't sure how Card (the author) could finish everything in that amount of space. But I think he did a superb job, wrapping up most loose ends, and giving the book the feeling that only really good series give you at the end: a kinda sadness like you're saying good bye to an old friend who isn't going to be coming back. In my opinion, any series that can do this to you is a series worth reading. I'm not gonna review the book or anything, but I liked it a lot, and if you've read ANY of the books in either series, you need to...well, first read the others. ;0P

Anywho, in short it was an awesome book, and everyone should read it.

Oh, and I should also add that he does leave one or two things open, but i don't think he intends to write more on this. But he could! It's all cool though.
