Rating:  Summary: Simply Put...The Best Book I have Ever Read Review: Simply put, this is the best book in any genre, any time, any country that I have ever read. No deeper look into the mind..no better book...that is all I can say.
Rating:  Summary: My favorite book Review: I feel like I should respond to some of the comments which have been made regarding Ender's Game. First of all, I should say that it is my favorite book; I have read it seven times, and each time I find new things to like about it. Those who claim that it is a "beach book" or "easy read" are completely missing out on Orson Scott Card's genius. Perhaps they are turned off by the fact that it is often classified as a science fiction work, or perhaps they are just incompetent readers; whatever the reason, I hope that no one has been dissuaded from reading Ender's Game by the few negative reviews, as they do not accurately reflect the book's quality.Although Ender's Game does include some features traditionally ascribed to the science fiction genre, such as futurism, space travel, and extraterrestrial life, it thoroughly transcends the genre. The plot is gripping, fast-paced, and always interesting. Nevertheless, Card never fails to provide excellent descriptions of the characters and settings in the book. In fact, his writing style is so smooth and clear that I had trouble remembering that I was reading the book, as opposed to a character in it. However, what makes the book special is the characters themselves, both Ender and the supporting cast. Through their development, Card creates a story of incredible depth, power, and meaning. Ender's Game is at the same time a narrative of a young boy's struggle to persevere in the face of the most horrible choices, and an unflinching portrait of humanity as a whole. It is a study of the military mind, the drive towards power, the will to survive, the torture of guilt, and ultimately human redemption. Its full greatness cannot be expressed here; suffice it to say that it has moved my like no other book ever has, and that anyone who doesn't read it is sorely missing out.
Rating:  Summary: Very good book Review: This books is excellent and I really recomend it to be read
Rating:  Summary: A very good book! Review: I thought that Enders Game was a good book because it was very entertaining and well written. It had a little blood and guts at some times but I liked that.
Rating:  Summary: A Warning Review: If there is even a slight a chance that you will read this book than please DO NOT read the review from Clayton posted a few days before this one. It gives away away the suprise ending. I first read Ender's Game over almost two years ago and it contineus to be my favorite. I have now read it more times than I can remember. All of the characters that Card creates are complete people, the pacing is swift and draws the reader in, and the ending is unbelievable. This novel is not just for science fiction fans, or younger readers; it is for everyone. In general, I don't read science fiction and when I first saw the book I thought silly, based on the cover art. I won't repeat the old cliche, but you all know what is is. This turned out to be one of the best books I've read.
Rating:  Summary: One Word: Amazing Review: This is a book for all ages. The reading is not difficult, yet the characters and plot have astounding depth. This is the book that started it all. This is Orson Scott Card's legacy. Almost everybody who has read Card has read Ender's Game at one time or another. Most started reading Card because of Ender's Game. Ender's Game's plot, characters, setting, and description are all top-of-the-line. This is the most incredible Science Fiction/Fantasy novel I have ever read, along with Watership Down and Stranger in a Strange Land. Some say this book is perfect. I have to agree.
Rating:  Summary: Best book ever written! Review: Ender's Game is by far the greatest book I have ever read! It has to do with the life and upbringing of Ender Wiggin, a six-year-old genius who is the Earth's only hope for victory over invading "bugger" aliens. I recommend this book to people who even don't like science-fiction because it's not as much about space battles and aliens, as it is about life. It makes you think and understand some things about human nature that you would never even think of otherwise.
Rating:  Summary: Absulutly the best Sci-Fi book ever writen Review: A chilling a heart felt tale, of a briliant childs inner fight for servival and selfworth, amidst a gripping battle for earth's future. If your a sci-fi fan it's a must read. Card is a master at charactor development. You'll know and understand Ender and his brilliants as well as his short comings.
Rating:  Summary: THE single best book ever written Review: Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game is the single best book ever written. Card orchestrates a magnificent world in which a young boy, ostricized by his peers, saves the world from destruction by bugs. With multiple plots and sub-plots, and a very human character, and masterful writing, it is impossible not to enjoy this book.
