The series started with the novelette ''Ender's Game'', which was later expanded into the novel of the same title. It currently consists of sixteen novels, thirteen short stories, 47 comic issues, an audioplay, and a film. The first two novels in the series, ''Ender's Game'' and ''Speaker for the Dead'', each won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards.

A Young Man With Prospects (short Story)
''Ender in Exile'' is a science fiction novel by American writer Orson Scott Card, part of the ''Ender's Game'' series, published on November 11, 2008. It takes place between the two award-winning novels ''Ender's Game'' and ''Speaker for the Dead''. It could also be considered a parallel novel to the first three sequels in the Shadow Saga, since the entirety of this ''trilogy'' takes place in the span of ''Ender in Exile''. The novel concludes a dangling story line of the Shadow Saga, while it makes several references to events that take place during the Shadow Saga. From yet another perspective, the novel expands (or ''replaces'') the last chapter of the original novel ''Ender's Game''.Orson Scott Card - Online Radio Interview with the Author

The Last Shadow
''The Last Shadow'' is a 2021 science fiction novel by American writer Orson Scott Card, part of his Ender's Game (series), ''Ender's Game'' series. It links the Shadow Saga (the parallel companion series) back to the original Ender series. This book brings the two series back together, and wraps up some of the plot threads left dangling in ''Shadow of the Giant'' (the fourth book in the Shadow Saga). The events in the book follow those in ''Children of the Mind'', the final book in the Ender series. Card has said that he began writing the first pages of the novel while quarantined during the COVID-19 pandemic. The novel was originally set to be titled ''Shadows in Flight'', but Card decided to swap titles with the fifth book in the ''Shadow'' series (released on 17 January 2012), which serves as a bridge to the final book. The concluding events of ''Shadows in Flight'' were initially planned for the first chapter of the final book, with working title ''Shadows Alive''. See als ...
