I just finished the series with "Shadow of the Giant" and I just came here to say that this book was so great that it moved me to tears, yes a grown man moved to tears because of this book. I didnt even cry when my parents got divorced when I was seven.

Hi. I'm not up to that book yet, so I will read faster!

Now, if only Chuck Norris would cry...

Same here Jon, I cried to. But that happens to me alot when I get into a character written by OSC.

Welcome to the 'Rack.

Moved to tears...I did that on EG. I keep finding certain bits of it relating to my life completely. Unfortunately it is the parts I am trying to forget. But I can understand. The writing is such that we begin to feel as if it were a real person, that we know. If I could explain myself better I would, but I can't.

I'm glad to hear that I wasn't the only one who cried to an OSC book. Beans story with Petra really got to me deep I was crying the last 30 pages. Thanks for the reply guys.

Bean's character, and the Ender's Shadow book got me totally.

Umm...you might want to work your way up to Lost Boys

Go slowly.
