This is weird, but on a related note; the man himself, Orson Scott Card, believes the audio book version is the best way to ingest his work. After having listened to all of the Ender and Shadow series I can whole heatedly agree!

I listen to almost all the fiction I "read" (while in the car, on a flight, walking around the mall, etc). As long as the production is good, I agree with Card (and have enjoyed listening to his books as well).

Ender's Game was on sale on iTunes recently, and I snapped it up. Definitely nice on my commute.

listened to them myself, they are also among the best audiobook I listened to, reading-wise.

And most libraries carry the audio book, so you don't have to spend a fortune on buying them all (and there's always audible.com too)

That is how I consumed Pastwatch and Pathfinder. I've been keeping my eye on the local library's website for the Overdrive version. I've listened to and read all the Ender and Shadow books.
Then again, you'd think that if they embraced the audiobook market, and released all the past Card books in ebook form on their treebook release dates, they'd go ahead and do the same here.
