Point of view (POV) shifts frequently but always returns to Bean. Bean is the shadow of Ender Wiggin in that he follows Ender's movements through the schools to the ultimate command of the earth forces near the Bugger planets. He observes Ender's lead and analyzes what Ender does in respect to what he would do in the same situation.

POV takes on the third-person perspective while describing actions and giving dialog. This shifts off of Bean most often, but other characters give their POV as well.
