Every bit as good as the original!

As a fan of the original novel who must’ve read it at least a half dozen times, I enjoyed this audio play rendition every bit as much as I did the original read. They are not identical works, each medium has its strengths and weaknesses, but this version of the story was just as enjoyable, especially with the suite of talented actors voicing the characters. Card also revamped the story slightly with the adaptation, with gave new insights into the characters I missed in my reading of the originals. Highly recommended!

Great performance but

I enjoyed the live performance but unfortunately there were some changes done to accommodate auch audio story telling, which i found lacking in comparison to the original.

Beautiful remix of the amazing book

Great cast of voices that does as good a job as possible for a book that had so much narration or omniscient description - highly recommended! Transported me back in time to Gr 9 reading this for the first time! Will be happy to pass either the book OR this audiobook to my kids.

great performances

Loved listening to this performance, everything was great, and the way they were able to circumvent narration was good too. it all made sense and came together. probably best after reading the actual novel first.

A worthy interpretation

Be a big fan of the Ender's game series,, for a long long time,, and that was excellent. The voice actor, for Colonel Graff, did a marvelous job. Well worth the listen.

Brought the story to life better than the movie!

Whether you already know the story, or you are new to the series - it is a fantastic performance that is incredibly easy to get into. Even without the narration, I feel this stands on it's own and really brings to life the relationships that are formed throughout the story!

better as a reminder than an introduction

i read the book many years ago. then i bought this and was not happy with how it differed from the book, the details that were missing. i put it aside and listened the the rest of the books in the enderverse series. once I ran out of books i gave this a try again and had a much better experience. it was like getting a new view on the original story, with aspects from the rest of the series included. i dont know if listening to this before all the books would be as good of an experience as you would miss out on alot but this was a great walk down memory lane, where a simgle line reminded me of an entire story line.

Great story but is better with narration.

I really loved all the actors and actresses playing the different characters but I think some of the dialogue was pretty forced to make up for not having any narration.

Also when ever they mentioned that a certain amount of time had passed it felt really startling since there wasn't anything but a comment like "you've been here a year now" to tell me that any sort of time had passed.

I've really enjoyed this story but I think I'll look for just the audiobook next time.

a great listen if a little choppy

I wasn't sure what to expect based on other reviews but I was pleasantly surprised by the performance over all. it's not the best audio drama that I've ever heard, but it wasn't horrible. the playing of different music to transition between larger passages of time or to different scenes was alright, if sometimes choppy. sound effects were done well, voice acting was OK, though some of the voices sounded similar at points and I had trouble differentiating between speakers. The flow wasn't super smooth, it did feel choppy throughout the story, but I would listen again.
