Could someone please clarify the correct order of which I should read the Shadow series? I just came across a post made by OSC and it stated something about the end of Shadown of The Giant. Now before I read that, I thought that, that book was a possible book that he'd write at a later time. It wold seem I'm wrong, which really ties back into my question, any and all help would be greatly, greatly appreciated. The End.

Ender's Shadow
Shadow of the Hegemon
Shadow Puppets
Shadow of the Giant

That's all that's out right now.

The End.

Thank you, thank you. I really appreciate it. It's good to know that once I'm done with S. Puppets, I'll still have something else to read. Thaaaaanks!

There's an order?

They're listed in order released in OSC Library ^ under Books.

Well, sure, if you're going to trust the author and publisher on something so critical.

I recommend reading Ender's Game first, though.

They all stand alone. You can read them in any order. In fact, I recommend starting on the last page and working backward. You can read the individual paragraphs in order within the paragraph, but take the sequence of paragraphs backward. You'll find all kinds of surprising stuff, like where Amelia Earhart is now and that Paul McCartney is dead.

That's where she was, OSC. I already read your secrets backwards (partially backwards), and she's my personal pilot. I was able to do that because I discovered the secret to fabulous riches by reading partial-backwards as well.

Does it reveal where my stuffed lion is? The one my dad made me give up when I was 5?

He sent it to me, and I was very grateful for a time, but then I left it at school one day.

Sorry.

Is that where I got Leo from? I thought his story about escaping from the circus sounded fishy.

You know that scene in Toy Story when Woody is having that nightmare and gets thrown in the trashcan? THat's where your stuffed lion is. In the nightmare trash can. Mwahahaha

The trash can of nightmares is filled with fluffy bunnies and cotton candy.

No one ever takes bunny attacks seriously...until it is TOO LATE.

Actually, after The Half-Blood Prince came out, I reread the Harry Potter series backwards (chapter-by-chapter). I didn't think about it until now, but that was probably because I recently reread Pastwatch. I actually picked up a lot that I missed by thinking about an effect and then seeing the cause. Perhaps I should grab Children of the Mind and start back towards Ender's Game - it has been too long since I reread that one...
