Shadow of the Hegemon

Bean has just come back to earth after being up in space in a place called battle school for around 4 years, has just helped save the human race and now realizes that his childhood enemy, Achilles, has escaped an insane asylum and has to deal with him. That’s a lot for a kid who is only 9. He has a little problem though. He doesn’t stop growing! He grows at a continuous pace until his heart is to small for his body or his spine collapses. This makes him a genius though because his brain doesn’t stop growing. Achilles can’t stand being at another persons mercy and he was, at one point in time, at beans mercy. One of the reasons he was in the insane asylum in the first place was because he had to constantly kill any body who saw or partook in putting him in a point of weakness. These people who saw him like this were a constant itch to him until they were dead. now this guy is trying to take over the earth by earning the trust of nations and then betraying them to bigger nations and so on and so forth. during this he is trying to kill bean who has gone into hiding with a nun by the name of sister carlotta, and Peter Wiggin, the brother of Ender Wiggin, who saved mankind from an invading alien race, is behind the identity of two major politicians by the names of Locke and Demosthenes and with them he is trying to obtain the position of the Hegemon. bean is his shadow. hence the name Shadow of the Hegemon. Beans objective is to counter Achilles and put Peter Wiggin in the office of the Hegemon. this is a very intense and mind blowing book that will keep most interested. It is a great book with high adventure and will probably make you think. Shadow Of The Hegemon is awesome
