Mmmk. I was at a bookstore this weekend and I was going to see what all the fuss was about with this "Ender Series" or something, but all I could find by Card were short stories. Is that what they are? Short stories? There was a small book of 4 short stories called First Meetings, and a big one called Maps in a Mirror. (I think..something to do with Map and Mirror)

Ah, the book you want to read first is called "Ender's Game" and it's a novel.

The rest of the Ender series are also novels. They are:

Speaker for the Dead
Xenocide
Children of the Mind

Try looking in a bookstore. In the sci-fi section.

(you can also look deep inside your soul and find it there too)

Don't forget Ender's Game's parallel novel, Ender's Shadow and the rest of the Bean series:

Shadow of the Hegemon
Shadow Puppets
(And the soon to be released) Shadow of the Giant

Maps in a Mirror has the original short story of "Ender's Game" in it as well. Along with a number of OSC's early short fiction (Which is all pretty good. I especially enjoyed the Snowflake/Dog story, though I can't remember the name of it).
