I just finished _Ender in Exile_, having started _Ender's Game_ only in early FEB.

Not being competitive; just saying I may have ingested them so quickly as to have caused some degree of addiction.

So what would you all recommend next?

I know there's _First Beginnings_ - and in the postscript to EIE, OSC said that there's some Ender(-ish) in every IGMS, but..
..I'm gonna run out soon!

I keep trying to figure out how to articulate what I so loved about the Ender series. Best I've been able to do so far is that OSC shows a deep positive sense of life and benevolent universe attitude - and he has his characters confront moral issues. Not to mention good people achieving their goals by using their intelligence.

I thought _Magic Street_..
(which I happened to read before the Enders)
..was similar in those regards.

Are those characteristic of all his works?


Thanks in advance.

Yes, that's one of his major themes.
