I thought this was a really good book with a lot of great ideas.

Enders Game by Orson Scott Card is the perfect book for anyone who loves a good science fiction novel dealing with space, aliens, and it is set in the future. In a time when aliens ("buggers") are evident, Earth relies on the protection of leaders to fight these buggers. Children who fit the right criteria are chosen to go into space and start training for a command position to be in the battle fighting buggers.
Ender Wiggin is one of these children. He is chosen to train and study to become the best hope that Earth and its people's has of surviving the bugger war. With one struggle after the next, the reader sees Ender being broken down and tested in ways that are unfair and outrageous. The reader gets to read about Enders training and see if he is the one who will command and win the bugger war.
This is the first book in a series of four books. I am definitely going to read therest of the series. I highly recommend this book and series to everyone. It has also been made into a movie. I am excited to watch the movie and see how it compares to the novel.

These are some of my favorite books of all time.

excellent series. a little self important with the 2nd book, but still very, very good.

As long as you can ignore the ludicrous ages the author gives to these children these books are a fun and original read.

Thoroughly enjoyed Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow. Not wanting to put more money in the author's pocket, will be holding off on reading anything else by him.

Card has made one of the greatest Sci-Fi books I've had the pleasure of reading. The characters are well thought out, especially Ender (of course that would be the assumption). Ender is likeable, stategic, and surprisingly dangerous, especially after breaking bones of his bullies. The latter of which seems uncharacteristic of a classic bullying situation where rarely the victim exacts physical violence against his tormentor. That was one thing I never really understood, because if Card was trying to portray Ender as a long-time sufferer of bullies, then Ender would /NOT/ have fought back. Other than those small pet-peeves, the book is great and you won't find yourself "just reading words"-- no, you will comprehend it because the story grips you that good.

i want to make it clear that although this is a "box set" i read all three books, and would recommend you doing the same. Or at least the first one. they go down hill after that.

One of my favorite series of all time. I actually re-read them every few years or so. Definitely worth a read.

I read this book before reading Ender's Game. I so enjoyed it that I decided to read the series in order.

Loved it. Amazing ending.

I am not a sci-fi fan, but this book (Ender's Game) had me reading to the end. I love the games they play and the creativity that Ender and his friends have.
I read the hole series and the rest was dissapointing to me.
