	Peter Wiggin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the age of twelve, Peter convinces Valentine to use their parents' network identities (and eventually identities that they have obtained for themselves) to submit to the world writings under the names of Locke (Peter) and Demosthenes (Valentine).
		Peter dislikes being told what to do, but recognizes that this is the only action he can take, as it is only a matter of time before Achilles, now pulling the strings in India, takes action to expose or kill him.
		Peter justifies himself by saying that reporting sooner would have done nothing to stop it, as he would not have been believed; and that even if he was, neither India or Thailand had the capacity to resist the Chinese aggression.

		Peter Wiggin, Hegemon of Earth, along with Petra Arkanian, comes to visit Alai, who is now the Caliph of the Muslim League.

		Peter's creulty and it's impacts on ender are illustrated frequently throughout the entire novel.
		Peter's story line is provided with no such vehicle for demonstrating Peter's maturity is provided, in all honesty because he's already too complex a character to completely flesh out without taking the spotlight away from Bean, who's the focus of the novels.
		Peter was born to parents consciously choosing an environment of duplicity and fear.

	Valentine Wiggin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		She used the gambit in the hopes that Peter would realize that if the record came out it would not necessarily convict him of anything, but it would be a damaging enough record to keep him out of politics, a realm he wished desperately to enter.
		During this time, Valentine recognized that Peter often was trying to manipulate her for his own purposes, though Valentine felt like she was maniupulating Peter as well.
		Peter was denied entrance because he lacked the fundamental charisma of a leader - people would follow him out of like-minded goals, but never show him the same devotion and love that Ender could command.

		Peter Wiggin had all kinds of contacts throughout the world, a collection of informants that was gradually turning into a serious network of spies, but as far as Bean could tell, Peter was still just playing a game.

		Peter, as Locke, has carved out enormous influence on the world scene, and now desires to become the Hegemon, an office roughly analogous to head of the United Nations.

	Orson Scott Card: Shadow of the Hegemon
		It is up to Bean, who is presumed dead, and Peter Wiggin, who is known to the world under his pseudonyms of Locke and Demosthenes, to rescue the other children and help the world avert a catastrophe.
		One of the strongest scenes in the novel is when Bean sits down with Ender and Peter Wiggins’ mother and tries to understand how and why she raised her three children in the manner she did.
		Wiggin and the reader, the debate the two characters hold is intrinsic to understanding how people get to be the was they are and why parents don’t always appear to act in their children’s best interest.

	BOOK REVIEW: In the Shadow of Ender’s Game -- Shadow Puppets is the Latest Installment in Ender’s Earth Saga
		Peter foolishly believes he can trust Achilles, and frees him from the Chinese in order to use him.
		Very quickly, Peter becomes yet another person to understand that Achilles is in fact using him, and must scramble in order to avoid his own destruction.
		Peter’s parents, John and Theresa Wiggin, are two characters who deservingly receive a great deal more attention in this book.

	Ender's Game Peter Wiggin
		Ender's older brother, Peter, scares him to death.
		Peter is particularly hostile towards Ender, jealous that the I.F. considers Ender superior after his own intelligence was unrecognized.
		(The Fleet eliminated Peter from their roster of Battle School candidates because of his sadistic nature.) At school, Peter torments other children by finding "what they most feared and [making] sure they faced it often." Peter's cruelty is disguised by his dark and handsome appearance and his ability to hide his actions.

	The Official Time-Waster's Guide v3.0
		While great events do happen--Peter Wiggin’s emergence into real-world politics, for example--they occur with an almost random nonchalance, as if Card realizes that the book lacks the conceptual greatness that has marked many of his other works.
		They are presented as if their only worthy adversaries are people in the same ‘club.’ It is taken for granted that Peter can capture the title of Hegemon, and that Achilles will come to dominate any country that takes him in.
		However, it is still a recommended read for anyone interested in the continuing adventures of Bean, as it does nicely advance his character, as well as give some depth to Peter and his family.

	Ender Wiggin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.virginia.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Andrew "Ender" Wiggin is a fictional character from Orson Scott Card's science fiction story Ender's Game and its sequels (Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind), as well as in the second part of the spin-off series, Ender's Shadow.
		Ender was the youngest of three children at a time of a strict two-child policy, his existence called for by a program aiming to produce commanders for humanity's war against the Formics, or buggers.
		The generals had noted the exceptional but unusable abilities of his older siblings, Peter (who was originally said to be too aggressive and impossible to cooperate with) and Valentine (who was too kind and willing to compromise).

	Orson Scott Card: Shadow Puppets
		Following Ender's Shadow and Shadow of the Hegemon, Shadow Puppets tells the story of Peter Wiggin's greatest mistake and how he managed to extricate himself from it.
		In addition to the crisis Achilles' presence causes for Peter, Card explores the personal relationship between Bean, who is afraid of his genetic alterations and their affects on himself and any progeny he might have, and Petra, whose love for Bean is such that she is willing to deal with those issues.
		The Peter Wiggins of Shadow Puppets is not quite the megalomaniac despot depicted in Speaker for the Dead.

		Peter Wiggins, Ender's brother, has foreseen that the talented children are in danger of being killed or kidnapped.
		Peter, Ender's brother, who was too ruthless to make it to Battle School, also works to rule the planet, but through more peaceful, political means.
		Consequently, it is hard to judge this novel because there is more of the story to be told and the ending has very much of a "to be continued" feeling.

	Title
		It's strongest point was the additional insight it gave into Peter Wiggin, Bean, and the other children Ender fought alongside.
		Those on a mission to save the kidnapped children have to decide whether capturing the power-hungry Achilles is worth opening the door for power-hungry Peter Wiggin to take over the world instead.
		Since I thought that it was pretty clear that Peter would be a more ethical leader, and that he might scheme to acquire power but probably would not murder to get it, so this seemed like a non-issue.
