Summary: This book will grasp any reader
Review: This is by far the best book I've ever read. I was so drawn to this book that I just finished it for my second time and will be sure to read several times more. The way Card captures the brilliance and genius of Ender makes this book grab you right from the first chapter and hold onto you until the unbelievable ending. This is a must read for all, Sci-Fi fans or not, everyone will love this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Most Vivid, Sympathetic Hero in All Sci-Fi
Review: A young boy who fulfills his destiny to save the universe is almost a common character in fiction, a poor example of which is George Lucas' "Phantom Menace". Lucas should have given up his pitiful attempt at writing, and should've simply copied "Ender's Game" in entirety - Lucas would have ended up with an immortal masterpiece. Card is a rare genius on the level of Charles Dickens, and he created a character in Ender so complex and vivid, yet so familiar and near to our hearts. This novel will stand the test of time as one of the very few greatest sci-fi of all time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Truely the best of the best.
Review: Ender's trilogy is got to be one of the finest series of books in any genre. I am extremely pleased with this as with the others. With it wisedom imparting philosophical dialog to its hints of suspense and action, it is truely the best of the best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An almost perfect novel
Review: I am not the greatest reader in the world, and am not one for experimenting with authors I am unfamiliar with as I am afraid of wasting time reading a novel that leaves me cold and unmoved. I read about Orson Scott Card's "Ender" saga on Amazon.com and in Sci-Fi magazines, and because the book wasn't an oversized tome I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad that I did because it had me gripped from the first chapter, and the memory of Ender's story stayed with me for days after I'd finished reading it.

With the exception of The Lord of the Rings, no other book has left such a lasting impression on me. Also, like the aforementioned book, it is a novel that can be appreciated by almost any age group. The story is fast paced and action packed for the younger readers, but covers profound topics for the older reader. Ender experiences friendship and love, ostracism and loneliness, guilt and forgiveness. The final chapter is tragic but ultimately uplifting, and as with any great sci fi book will leave you contemplating for many days and drawing parallels with the present world. This would be a great book to study at school and discuss.

If you are like me and only read a handful of books per year, this book will remind you of how rewarding a good read can be. I will definitely read the other books in the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrific doesn't do justice
Review: I first read this book in 8th grade and immediately fell in love with it. Although I own all the books in the series, Ender's Game is by far my favorite. The beauty of the book is that it is not depended upon the sci-fi aspect. While the futuristic setting does make things interesting, it's only dressing for the real story: that of a boy growing up in a demanding environment. Card does an excellent job of portraying Ender's development as the story progresses. It is nearly impossible *not* to identify with Ender. Even if you aren't a sci-fi fan, you should definitely read this book. There cannot be enough said in favor of this book.
