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.

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).

“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.
