Incredibly awesome! The first of the series (Ender's Game) is more militaristic than what follows it. In the later "Ender's series" questions about morality, justice, law, life, and faith are all brought into question.

One of the few Sci-Fi that I go for...beautiful way of addressing race/genocide and integrating futuristic technology that is compatible with current science. However, the reading was slow and he often got bogged down in the details and complicated explanations. Interesting read anyway.

Go to the end of imagination, and then go beyond.

It's mystical. It's philosophical. It's asking questions about definitions and differences between humanity and being human. It's thoughtful, organised and well-written.

It I was forced to chose one book as my absolute favorite - you know this ridiculous question - Ender's Saga would be probably the choice.

It was hard to understand at first with him being six years old and all but all together it was a great book

The three books following Ender's Game are not quite as good as the original. They go in a different direction becoming more philisophical.

sheesh, this took awhile. Can't tell if I wasn't terribly interested or if it was because I have been busy with other things lately. In a way, I liked it better than Ender's Game because of the lack of swearing and violence. But, I found most of the parts interesting. A few parts were boring, but not many.

Absolutely excellent science fiction. It is more real than reality.

Novinha is a horribly irritating, irrational, unlikeable character, and I dislike adult Ender as well. She is extremely catty and he's kind of a whiner. Valentine is a whiner too. Ooh, and I really, truly, hate Han Qing-jao. I hate Novinha the most, more than any other fictional person.

I might be biased because I'm in love with Peter, and I'm very partial to Si Wang-mu.

I do love the Pequeninos. It's probably really racist/horrible to say I want one.

It was a good sequel. It was different than the first book, but in a good way.

When Card uses the forward to pan American literature as derivative, when he himself is an American author.. it sets the tone for this preachy, self-indulgent mess of bad characterization and amateur eastern philosophy.
