Nearly all of them. There are 8 actual novels, several short stories, & a novelette, plus a new novel to be released later this year.

Wow! I thought there were only 4 or 5. I've read Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow. Eaters of the Dead is the next one, I think.

Eaters of the Dead is a Michael Crichton book.
The Ender books are: (in reading order)
The first two stories in First Meetings (The Polish Boy, & Teacher's Pest) then,
Ender's Game then,
A War of Gifts (short story read sometime near the middle of reading Ender's Game) then,
The third story in First Meetings (only if desired, it is the original short story Ender's Game from 1977) then,
Ender's Shadow then,
Shadow of the Hegemon then,
Shadow Puppets then,
Shadow of the Giant then,
The final story in First Meetings (Investment Councilor) then,
Speaker for the Dead then,
Xenocide then,
Children of the Mind
The new novel is called Ender in Exile & I think it is supposed to be read after reading Shadow of the Giant, and before reading Speaker for the Dead. But I'm not certain.

Here are my pix from the CC. Lots of the group shots.
I did the reading pictures again, but added all costume characters. Haven't uploaded them yet. There are some fun ones!

Boy I can't believe how packed it was! Kari, what happened, I lost you! I went back to the Astro Boy line and you were gone, then I went back to the Warner Bros. display, thinking you might have gone over there, then I went back again. I hope you didn't think I ditched you. Did you see the Luke Skywalker pic you were looking for? They were giving out cards with that pic and another one on it. I hope you got it. If you didn't, I got 2 and you can have one.
Anyway, Darren and I had fun, but boy were my feet and legs sore!

Sonya, there were 125,000 people there, so I'm not surprised that we lost each other. I lost people 3 times over 2 days and one of them was wearing an orange x-wing costume. That's a hard one to miss. Sorry we didn't meet up again! I'm glad you made it in time for the Sunrider picture! Your costume looked GREAT!!!
Not only did I find the artist that did the Luke Skywalker Rouge Leader illustration, I bought one!!! I'd been kicking myself for missing out on it since C-IV. It was $50 for the smallest one he had. I only had 20s and he didn't have change so I ended up getting it for $40. More happiness!! That one is on my priority list to get matted and framed! Thanks for thinking about me, but I also picked up a couple of his illustration cards.
I'm glad you guys had a good time!

Yay, I'm glad you got your picture. That's awesome that you got it for less! You know, I was LOOKING for something to buy, but nothing ever really jumped out at me and said "You MUST buy me", so I left without really getting anything. Oh I got a couple of Finding Nemo figurines out of a vending machine, but that's about it.

I bought the illustration, a Serinity (Firefly) ornament and a comic book for the actor who played Mal to autograph. That's it. My purchases at the CC have gotten less and less over the years. The first year I went I wanted to buy everything I saw that had anything to do with SW. As with most, I can't afford to do that now!

Still jealous over Nathan Fillion. Every time I went to the Browncoats booth, he wasn't there.
