	Ender's Shadow (Shadow Saga S.) Book at Shop Ireland
		Bean's character was developing to the point where he could start to emote but I feel the last chapter was somehow wrong.
		The title character is Bean, who was introduced in the original novel as even younger and smaller than Ender Wiggin when he first arrived at the Battle School.
		The Bean of "Ender's Shadow" does not conflict with the character as originally presented in "Ender's Game," but certainly there is little to suggest in the first book of the true extent of Bean's abilities.

		By Bean telling him what he's been through will allow the audience to not only see what he's been through, it will be a growing point for Bean's character, and a growing point for their relationship.
		Given such, all other characters and scenes MUST be used to develop that character or his relationship with the other characters, so, let's start at the beginning.
		As far as the Bean and Achillies characters, Achillies is a secondary character relative to Bean and has no relationship to Ender at all, so he can be removed entirely.

		It is his performance that guarantees that the character belongs in a live-action, as opposed to cartoonish, world.
		The first, in which Mr Bean takes a maths exam, is, according to my father, one of the funniest things he’s ever seen, and while I wouldn’t go that far it is certainly very amusing.
		From the start Bean’s character, half unpleasant, half trying to conform, is firmly established, whether he’s sniggering at a fellow student’s perceived failure to revise the correct material or his subsequent desperate attempts to crib from that same student.

		If the story is ABOUT character (i.e., it follows the character story structure), then you absolutely must know the character and all their relationships, and therefore all those other characters and THEIR relationships.
		Bean's response to the death of Poke is not "thematic" - it's just something awful that happened to someone he felt responsible for.

	Bureau 42 \| Book Review - "Ender's Shadow"
		Bean's character is well developed, but the other characters are not.
		Instead, Bean's personal storyline is wrapped up in a very predictable fashion, and the only true suspense in the final chapters comes from the same suspense found in the relevant chapters of Ender's Game.
		The storylines about Bean's personal life should have been partially postponed until later in the novel, and something of what happens to him in the future he's prepared for should have been present.

		Bean being foisted off on gullible Americans as an art historian in order to get him out of England for a while, is nothing more than an episodic excuse to put the character through his paces in the face of a small group of gob-smacked Yankees.
		Innocently obnoxious and painfully thoughtless, Bean is the nutty professor, the cable guy, and the innocent abroad all wrapped up in one stifling package.
