Shadow Puppets Limited Edition - Leather Bound
Orson Scott Card
In the third installment of the Shadow Saga, the fragile peace established after Ender Wiggin's victory over the Formics has shattered. Peter Wiggin, Ender's ambitious older brother, has been elected Hegemon of Earth, but his authority is largely symbolic as nations once again vie for global dominance. The stakes escalate when Peter's old rival, the sociopathic master manipulator Achilles de Flandres, is rescued from captivity and begins a new campaign of cold-blooded political subversion. Bean and Petra Arkanian, knowing Achilles kills anyone who has seen him vulnerable, are forced into hiding to survive. While maneuvering through a landscape of international treachery involving a resurgent China and a rising Muslim caliphate, Bean must also confront his own mortality caused by 'Anton's Key'—the genetic enhancement that granted him his brilliant mind but ensures his body will never stop growing. This limited leather-bound edition follows the brilliant young veterans of Battle School as they attempt to outwit a monster and prevent the world from collapsing into a catastrophic final war.
