Bestselling author Orson Scott Card brings to life a new chapter in the saga of Ender's Earth and The Shadow Series. Earth and its society have been changed irrevocably in the aftermath of Ender Wiggin's victory over the Formics. The unity forced upon the warring nations by an alien enemy has shattered. Nations are rising again, seeking territory and influence, and most of all, seeking to control the skills and loyalty of the children from the Battle School. But one person has a better idea. Peter Wiggin, Ender's older, more ruthless, brother, sees that any hope for the future of Earth lies in restoring a sense of unity and purpose. And he has an irresistible call on the loyalty of Earth's young warriors. With Bean at his side, the two will reshape our future. Shadow Puppets is the continuing story of Bean and Petra, and the rest of Ender's Dragon Army, as they take their places in the new government of Earth.
Ender y su equipo de niños precoces han contribuido a la victoria de la humanidad frente a los insectores. La humanidad se ha salvado, pero han resurgido los viejos problemas provocados por la ambición, la política y la guerra. El planeta se ha fraccionado en multitud de pequeños estados, controlados por los niños precoces, y un nuevo conflicto entre esos países y las dos grandes potencias en expansión -China y el Islam- se avecina.

In the aftermath of the war, while Indians, Thais, Burmese, Vietnamese, Cambodians, and Laotians searched their onetime conquerors' land for family members who had been carried off, Bean and Petra also searched as best they could by computer, hoping to find some record of what Volescu and Achilles had done with their lost children.
