I've heard tons of praise for this book and it didn't disappoint in the least. Above all, it's a tale of human compassion. After all, compassion is one of the most human of all our qualities.

Very good, shame that I had seen the film and therefore already "knew" what would happen. The book is a little different compared to the film in some ways irrelevant, but the principle is the same. Good storytelling and good ideas.

"I did like this book, but it wasn't my absolute favorite. I listened to it on audiobook, and loved the voice actors that read it. They were fantastic. Definitely worth listening to/reading! :) "

“Ender's Game" is the classic book that I've spent years recommending to anyone who had wanted to hear.

And it is one of the books I liked, first as a teenager and later as an adult, in a second reading just as fascinating as the first.

The novel by Orson Scott Card, is a classic of science fiction Hugo Award and won the Nebula in 1986 and in 1985 (the most important of its kind). "Ender's Game" tells the story of Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, the third son of a family (in a future society where the number of children per couple is limited to two) who is recruited by the army to save the earth mankind from the threat of an alien attack.

“I hooked and I read it in one sitting.

Ender's training explained in great detail and is the basis of the book. Perhaps the final, in comparison, is a bit rushed and could extend a couple of chapters.
