	Shadow of the Hegemon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The cover art for Shadow of the Hegemon features Bean standing in the metaphorical shadow of Earth, under control of the hegemon Peter Wiggin.
		Shadow of the Hegemon (2001) is the second novel in Orson Scott Card's Ender's Shadow series (often called the Bean Quartet) and the sixth novel in the Ender's Game series.
		Ender's brother Peter, acting as his online pseudonym Locke (a conscious nod to John Locke), has caused Ender to leave to another planet so that he cannot be used by world leaders.

	Card's Shadow of the Hegemon
		Shadow of the Hegemon is a masterpiece of military and political strategy.
		Hegemon is also notable for its extended use of Thai characters and Thailand as a setting.
		Shadow of the Hegemon clears up many questions lingering from previous books, such as the nature of the repression experienced by Ender's family, and how two apparently witless parents could have been the parents of three genius children.

	Orson Scott Card: Shadow of the Hegemon
		The moral part of Shadow of the Hegemon is by far the more interesting and seems to be closer to Card’s interest in writing the book than the warfare aspects.
		The military sequences of Shadow of the Hegemon are presented quite well, explaining the manner in which strategy and tactics are used.
		Card covers much of the same territory in Shadow of the Hegemon, although Card’s veterans are underschooled children who have most of their lives ahead of them and must learn to be adults as well as civilians.

		Shadow of the Hegemon focus's on the protaganist of ender's shadow, bean aka julian delphiki (WAY better than ender by far) as he stugges to prevent wars while searching for his kidnapped friend from ender's jeesh, petra arkanian.
		The Peter of SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON is very different from the Peter of CHILDREN OF THE MIND, and is perhaps the most complicated character of the entire series.
		All in all, SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON is a worthy sequel and quite on par with ENDER'S SHADOW.

		With Ender's Shadow, even though I knew in advance how the plot would end (since it is, after all, the same plot as in Ender's Game), I still found myself unable to put the book aside.
		With Shadow of the Hegemon, this was hardly the case.
		Even more so than Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon is presented as a clearly unfinished story, and the next sequel (or sequels) is simply a matter of time.

		SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON is yet another worthy episode in Orson Scott Card's excellent series about the Formic War and its consequences.
		SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON continues the Ender/Bean saga very well, drawing ethical and theological concerns into the narrative seamlessly and effortlessly.
		I enjoyed Ender's Shadow and I guess in a way, it was interesting to see what happens to all the Battle School kids after the war was over.

	Shadow of the Hegemon (064caro3)
		Although Hegemon doesn't quite succumb to this problem, it comes close enough to seriously damage the novel.
		Hegemon follows Ender's Shadow in filling in gaps around Ender's Game, this time between the war against the Buggers and Peter's rise to power.
		The premise of Shadow of the Hegemon is also well-established.

	Dancing About Architecture: Shadow of the Hegemon
		The main character, Bean, continues to be intriguing: he's a unique enough character to justify continuing reading this series.
		Then a couple of years ago I read the first book in the "parallel" series, Ender's Shadow, and it was surprisingly good.
		I figured it was time to finish reading the Shadow books, and I hope the quality is maintained (unlike the original series, which got pretty weird towards the end).

		More recently, Ender's Shadow reworked the original tale of precocious boy soldier Ender saving the world from alien hordes at terrible personal cost, as told from the different, colder viewpoint of his even younger lieutenant Bean.
		Shadow of the Hegemon lacks glittering SF hardware and seems almost old-fashioned after the planet-busting supertechnology of Ender's Game.
		However, I was disappointed in the way Peter ascends to the position of Hegemon.

	The Very Best Books : Shadow of the Hegemon
		After Ender's Shadow came out, I had some hope for the Ender series, but with Shadow of the Hegemon, it's going right downhill again.
		The preaching in Shadow of the Hegemon didn't really fit in with the story or advance the plot.
		While Xenocide was less enjoyable than Speaker for the Dead, and Children of the Mind less enjoyable again, this second book in the "Shadow" subseries is definitely better than the first.

		But just as he played second to Ender during the Bugger war, Bean must again step into the shadow of another, the one who will be Hegemon.
		But while the theme is the same as in previous books--brilliant, tragic children with the fate of the human race resting on their shoulders--Shadow of the Hegemon does a wonderful job of continuing Bean's tale against a backdrop of the politics and intrigue of a fragile earth.
		In Orson Scott Card's Shadow of the Hegemon, the sequel to Ender's Shadow, the 70 year war with the Buggers is finally over.

		The Ender's Quartet and Shadow i considered to be fantastic books although in different ways.
		Bean had fascinating twists in Ender's Shadow, but nothing could be fleshed out throughout Hegemon, even Bean's state of being "not quite human" was quickly dismissed.
		Put these three characters together with other interesting people, future bamboozled political situations, and lots of guns, brains, and Orson Scott Card and you have a book that is garenteed to keep you on the edge of your seat, never wanting to put it down.

		Shadow of the Hegemon brings the tally of books in this setting where a group of the brightest children save the planet from alien invasion to six volumes.
		The political scenes, not only in Asia, but in Peter Wiggins’ attempt to become Hegemon are also done well, and show Card’s interest in broadening his Ender universe to incorporate more potential stories.
		As befalls many series, the Ender universe is developing patterns, partly due to Card’s own patterns and partly due to the limitations written into the universe in the first novel.

		Orson Scott Card says in the afterword to "Shadow of the Hegemon" that this book is as different from "Ender's Shadow" as "Speaker for the Dead" was from "Ender's Game".
		What made "Shadow of the Hegemon" stand out for me was the political aspect of the novel.
		It picks up where Ender's Shadow left off: the war against the aliens has been won, which means that all of the domestic tensions set aside for that battle have re-emerged in full force, and the brilliant children who won the war for Earth become prizes in those battles.

		In a world between wars, filled with ambitious countries jockeying to carve up their neighbors, the children of Battle School are the strongest asset a nation can possess.
		But at the end of 'Ender's Shadow' everyone was wondering, 'What happens to Bean?'.

		It is not on a par with Ender's Shadow or with Ender's Game, but as someone else pointed out: the story needed telling, and it is great to read.
		But compared to OTHER books, Shadow of the Hegemon is superior.

	Steven Wu's Book Reviews: Shadow of the Hegemon (Orson Scott Card) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		As with Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon is an easy-to-read yarn that quickly lost my interest.
		But the biggest problem with Shadow of the Hegemon is that it is essentially a political thriller, with none of the imaginative elements that made Ender's Game (and Speaker of the Dead) so wonderful.
		Card is a mediocre political novelist (despite the laurels he heaps on himself in his bizarre afterward), and the machinations that occur in Shadow of the Hegemon feel simplistic, almost naive.

		The story of Bean continues with SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON, the second novel in the companion series to Orson Scott Card’s 5-volume set about the life of Ender Wiggin.
		Unknown to Bean and the others, Achilles, the twisted villain of ENDER’S SHADOW, is alive, well and freshly escaped from the mental asylum to which he was consigned in the first book of this series.
		It is, rather, the middle part of a very long novel, which do tend to drag somewhat in the middle.

	Review of Shadow of the Hegemon by Orson Scott Card
		SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON by Orson Scott Card (see his website)
		Bean and Petra (another battle school veteran who for whom both Achilles and Bean hold a romantic attachment) dominate the novel as characters although Achilles dominates it as the central actor.
		Petra's attempts to keep her sanity and be faithful to her beliefs despite the brutal conditions of her captivity by Achilles adds an emotional depth critical to SHADOW OF THE HEGEMON's strength.
