I've searched everywhere online, and just haven't had the time to go out and look at the back of the book.
I used to have a quote from Shadow of the Hegemon (the last page) on my other computer that fried. It's one of my favorite quotes of all time from the Ender's Game series...actually, from everything.
I don't have the book, so I was wondering if someone who has the book could please type up the last page or two of the book, containing the conversation between Bean and Petra. The part that sorta goes (this is from memory, so excuse the incorrect parts):
Bean: That's not fair. Don't I get half of the kingdom? Petra: How about this...you can have it all.
If someone could please email me or reply here with that conversation, I would greatly appreciate it.
Just bought Shadow Puppets, also. Thanks all, and like the title says, Hello. Posted by AntiCool (Member # 7386) on :
quote:"I have an idea," said Petra.
"What?"
"If you ever change your mind-you know, about marrying and having babies -- hang on to my address. Look me up."
Bean was silent for a long moment. "Ah," he finally said, "I get it. I rescued the princess, so now I can marry her if I want."
"That's the deal."
"Yeah, well, I notice you didn't mention it until after you heard my vow of celibacy."
"I suppose that was perverse of me."
"Besides, it's a cheat. Aren't I supposed to get half the kingdom, too?"
"I've got a better idea," she answered. "You can have it all."

Thank you so much! I don't suppose there was a bit more before it? Such a speedy reply. This place is great.
Edit: Actually, that's fine. Thanks again. You have no idea how badly I've been dying to find out that quote again.
