Re: Demosthenes and Locke

What I found most beneficial, was to read Ender's stories first, then read Bean's stories. Yes, they do follow a similar, if not equal timeline, but I've read the books several times, and if mixing and matching for a first-timer can get confusing. It's easier to read one character, then to read the other. OSC has said many times that the reader can overlap the stories, but only if they have an idea of what is going on. Ender's life does cross Bean's life, but the books lead into entirely different directions. Try reading Ender's four, before reading Bean's four... and that's not to mention what's to come...
