I received a CD copy of Ender’s Game for Christmas 2011.
Just finished listening to Ender in Exile earlier this week.
Decided to listen to each book in order of release date, have really enjoyed most! 8)

One nice thing about the books on tape is that at the end of each the author provides several minutes of feedback regarding the book and how it came to be, updates etc. 

I am a father of four boys, 18, 16, 6 and 2.  Our 6 year old loves to listen to the “Ender Stories” as we drive. Recently started reading him the comic releases as bedtime stories, again in chronological order.

Looking forward to exploring this site as well as the film release later this year.   :)

Hi Peter W and welcome! Wow, four boys! And even more wow that your six year old likes the stories. It'll be even more exciting when he's old enough to read them for himself!

Update, the memory isn't all it seems to be sometimes.  ;D
I just found the gift receipt for the first book on tape my wife gave me for my birthday, Ender's Game. It was dated March 2012, only 12 months ago, not 2+ years like I thought.

In a way I am surprised I have gone through the first 12 releases in only a year. I had read (listened to) Shadow's in Flight before Ender in Exile in error.

Earth Unaware awaits the CD player in the A.M.

Enjoy Earth Unaware! That's pretty wild to get through all of them so quickly!

I enjoyed Earth Unaware, but not the cliffhanger ending. That's such a trend nowadays and I'm so sick of it.
