First Meetings: in the Enderverse

• The Polish Boy - my rating "B" = 3 stars
• Teacher's Pest - my rating "C -" = 1 stars
• The Investment Counselor - my rating B++ = 3 1/2 stars
• Later editions also include the novelette Ender's Game (1977).

I particularly enjoyed "Investment Counselor", one of the most memorable stories featuring Ender, aside from the original story and its novel expansion, plus "Speaker for the Dead" and "Ender in Exile".

My rating system: I begin with one star being equivalent to a rating of "C -". Progressing upwards, I add ½ star for each step, up to the maximum 5 stars, which is equivalent to a rating of "A"+. I reserve ½ star for BOMBS, there being no option of zero or negative stars.
