BOOK NAME: Ender’s Game
AUTHOR: Orson Scott Card

Hey guys. How are you all doing today? I know I’m happy. I am going to tell about one of my favorite books. It is called Ender’s Game. I think that this book is appropriate for 11 year olds through young adults

Ender is the main character in this book. His real name is Andrew but people call him Ender because he is a third child. There is a law that says you can only have two children but Peter (Enders brother) did so well in battle school that the government thought he would be the next great commander so they let the Wiggins have a third child because they thought that Ender would also be a great commander. It turns out Peter was too violent and Ender was just right.
Ender needs to save the world from the alien Buggers just as Mazer Rackham did about 70 years ago during their second invasion. He killed the Queen bugger. He also is Enders teacher at commander school. He teaches all of the kids who generals think have a chance at being the next commander of their fleet. Ender is the last child Mazer will be able to train before the third invasion which is coming soon. Everybody hopes that Ender is the next great commander.

Can Ender save the world? Will he ever get to see his family again? You have to read this book to find out. The book is part of a series. A very long series that is. It is so long that even today Orson Scott Card is still working on the last book. Have a nice day everybody and make sure you check under your bed for Buggers. I know I will.

    This book is amAzing! I so highly recommend it! There are some kind of strange behaviors that kids in the battle school have, but this is just great! Recommended to everyone with a tooth for adventure!

    Maybe I’m missing something, but I have a real issue with cards books. I didn’t likEnders game. Cool ending, and the emotional struggle was touching, but it was not that great. I don’t know why everyone makes such a fuss. The only leeway I’m giving is the fact that I just came from reading books

    Ack.comment was cut off. I just came back Frim reading Eoin Colfer, the best author yet, and this just didn’t click with me. Then I read pathfinder. The concept was original, but it was long and drawn out. I just didn’t like this book much, and I want the 2 hrs it took to read it of my life back.
