Xenocide (Ender's Saga, #3)

I really liked this book. Just like in the two others, I wanted to know more and more about Ender. But now, I was also really interested about his family.

I found Novinha more annoying than ever. I just wanted her to let her children do what must be done. But no, she wouldn't let them because she was so damn annoyed with everyone.


Well, Quara was another pain but I understood her ideas anyway, even though they only made everyone else's work harder. I loved Grego's character (his mistakes, his redemption afterwards), Olhado made me cry when I thought he was just there, not really doing anything, but he probed me wrong (thankfully).

I loved Miro more than ever. He was so damaged and yet so intelligent as ever. I loved his relationship with Ender, sometimes tender, sometimes stressful. But most of all, I adored his relationship with Jane. Oh, those two are something. Jane's so compassionate, so funny at times, so annoying, so human. I was so happy that Ender and her were friends again. Maybe they weren't as close as in the beginning, but that's only natural because now Ender's got a family.


And Valentine's back! God, I thought we weren't going to see more of her. I couldn't believe it. I was so damn happy for Ender.

Oh how I hated Quing-Jao stubborness! I couldn't stand her anymore! Wang-mu, on the other hand, was delightful at times. But at first I didn't enjoy the story of the world of Path because I was so eager to know what was happening on Lusitania. But I learned to like it. Thankfully, I learned to like it.

All in all, I think it was a great book. Really. I couldn't be more torned up to pieces now that Ender brought those two (I am not going to say their names just in case). It really kills me. Ender will always be so tormented.


Oh, why.
