Enders Game
Orson Scott Card
“I do not read a lot of sci-fi. Actually, don’t really like sci-fi. I really like “Enders Game” though. So, it doesn’t make a lot of sense. But Orson Scott Card actually did a really good job of diving into the psychology and interpersonal relationships of each of the characters. So, it’s not just sword fights and like dragons, a traditional sci-fi on like post-apocalyptic worlds. It’s more kind of how they’re dealing with what’s going on around them.
“Enders Game” is about a young boy, Ender Wiggin who is actually chosen to be trained to become a fleet commander because the world is being invaded by invaders. And I think they’re referred to as the “buggers,” so, basically his process of being trained, and his interactions with people, and his cohorts, his trainers and so forth.
There’s actually, five books in the series. So, this is more along the lines of a prologue. And it starts with “Ender’s Point of View” and kind of his processes and how he develops and then the other four books, two of them actually focus on “Ender’s Game,” the whole story, but from a different point of view from being, as well as I think it’s called the “shadow of haggemon,” something like that.
I thought that the writing style could get into when you’re in junior high or when you are you know growing up, as well. So, I think it’s related on a lot of levels for a lot of different people. If you are not interested in sci-fi, read this book. This will maybe get your feet wet and kind of warm you up a little bit, I think towards sci-fi. I would give this book, five stars out of five.”
