Summary: Ender's Game
Review: Ender's game is about a "third", a child born beyond the legal two. He, as well as his brother and sister have been conditioned to be the perfect soldiers for an upcoming war. I have read this, as well as the books succeeding this, and i still find myself coming back to this great story, to read it again, and share in Ender's adventure. This book is the written wonderfully, and is the very entertaining as well. I started reading the book late one night for the first time, and it was so exhilerating, i finished it that night, I hardly slept. I am a great lover of science fiction, and this book has it all. Space fighting, zero gravity battlefields, and an alien enemy. I strongly encourage you to read this book, and be prepared to read the entire book in one night!:-) Orson Scott Card can creat such a vivid scene in your head, that you feel as if you are there. You cannot wait to look around the next corner, and share in Ender's hardships, and in his victories. When he wins, you feel a sense of pride, and when he loses, defeat. But don't worry, There are far more victories than defeats!!!! This book you can ginve to anyone. Even a someone with a dislike for science ficion would love it, i'm sure. That is how well it is written. If you buy this book you wil not regret it. It has been my favorite book for years now, and i see it as mine for more to come.

Summary: The greatest book ever written.
Review: I first read this book many years ago when I was but a boy, and I can honestly say that this is the book that turned me into an avid reader. The book has obvious appeal for younger readers (Ender, and most of the main characters are children of remarkable ability), but it is by no means young adult fiction. Card uses the childrens point of view to look at humanity in a new and fresh way, in a way that escaped me until later in life. I've reread the book more times than I care to mention here, and it always provides me with new insights. Probably the most important aspect of the novel is that it just expounds coolness. The plot is incredible and deftly crafted, the characters ring true and win the reader's heart, and every kid and adult reader wants to go to, or wants have gone to Battle School after reading ENDER'S GAME. I've made many people read this book, and every single one of them has loved it. So now I'm making you read it, and you'll love it too.

Summary: A geek fantasy, but without the slave girls...
Review: I hadn't read any "real" science fiction since the 'Foundation' series several years ago. Recently, I was in the mood, and 'Ender's Game' came highly recommended. After seeing this novel praised to the heavens (here and elsewhere) as a classic, I was profoundly disappointed. When referring to a "classic of the genre," one implies a creative and intellectual work on a par with those of Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein, etc. This was more like 'The Last Starfighter.' Lest I seem deliberately contrarian, I must acknowledge 'Ender's Game' as a fast-paced, reasonably entertaining narrative that touches on several fascinating issues, including the nature and methods of leadership and the manipulation of a fragile human psyche for destructive purposes. Eventually, though, I realized that I had very little novel left, yet Ender and his "soldiers" had yet to see the enemy or fire a single shot in anger. At that point, the resolution of Ender's training, and the truth behind it, were painfully obvious. Card's attempt (in a few ponderous pages of exposition at the conclusion of his story) to transform his "shatterer of worlds" into an exploited, remorseful savior for the misunderstood species he has just unwittingly annihilated feels perfunctory and incongruous. It appears that in SF you don't make the REAL bank without sequels, so I suppose Card had to set one up somehow. Incidentally, I find it interesting that, as Card mentions in his intro, some readers find lessons here to be learned in military leadership. While Ender's machinations as the commander of Dragon Army indeed seem perceptive and useful in the context of training, the true test of a commander is how well his soldiers perform under REAL stress, with their comrades -friends- dying around them. 'Ender's Game' never explores this, and so to the principals involved it remains a game. It's about as gripping as the "heroics" of young Anakin Skywalker in that pathetic prequel we've all seen. Maybe, at 25, I'm just too old and jaded to be moved by all this. But at its core, 'Ender's Game' is simply a tired story. The story of a lonely boy genius, isolated by his intellect, who finally crushes the bullies, wins the admiration of the peers who resented him and the adults who didn't understand him, and saves the world by being really, really good at video games. The only thing missing is a princess to rescue. I'll give Orson Scott Card credit for knowing how to flatter his primary audience. If I were a maladjusted 16-year-old, this novel may have resonated more deeply with me. Its final pages imply that Ender does a lot of growing up in the course of this series. Please forgive me if I don't stick around to find out.

Summary: Wonderful Morality Play
Review: This novel is one of the most intriguing examinations of the use of military force and its ethical ramifications. What is the appropriate level violence to apply to one's enemies? Is OK to manipulate your own soldiers for the good of the people? The SF plot of the novel allows Card to use the canvass of an intergalactic ware to tell his tale. Beyond that, Ender makes for a fascinating character. The boy genius is a tortured, sympathetic hero like no other. Upon conclusion of the novel I rushed out and purchased Speaker For the Dead to follow Ender's further adventures. Often categorized as "young adult," this is a wonderful read for any age.

Summary: Wow the price came down again!
Review: Okay at this price, why WOULDN'T you buy this book? Well honestly I cannot give you a reason, but I can give several reasons why you should. First: It's one of the best books I've ever read. (I can give credit to this statement by saying I am an avid reader, and read A LOT) second: The character development is excellent, perhaps Card's strongest writing ability. Last: The content. It's a story set in the future on/around earth dealing with the world's changing government combined with the threat of alien invasion. From the point of view of an extremely intelligent child. I'd also suggest looking at "Ender's shadow" for a good read. Same story, different point of view. Also excellent.

Summary: Thoughtful and unique
Review: Ender's Game is a book that emblazons itself upon your psyche. The reader is immediately immersed in the adult-child war game realm of the characters and as pages turn you cannot help but to accept that human survival may depend on the creative thinking of a child. Of course, as the reader follows Ender's maturation as warrior and person there is the subltle recognition that children become adults two ways, gradually and then suddenly.
