Summary: The best book I have ever read!
Review: I like the mix between science fiction, and fantasy in Enders Game. I think Card is showing what he thinks the future will be like.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the greatest books I ever read
Review: I read this book about seven, eight years ago. At that time I wasn't really into readings. But I was absorbed into this book right away, and didn't want to put it down. This may sound pretty boring and average, but it has NEVER happened to me before! This book has also helped me to develop a real interest in reading, and I have read many books in the following years, which includes most of the books by Orson Scott Card.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Book Rocks -It won the Hugo ---and---- Nebula awards!
Review: you'll love the book

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A book that you can easily read from beginning to end.
Review: Ender's Game is the most catching, involving, and absorbing book i know. Through word of mouth, myself and about 20 other friends read it while in high school. I only know of one person who read 1/2 the book one day and finished it on the 2nd day. ALL of the rest of us read it in one sitting! It's so suspenceful and amazing that we seriously could not put it down. Some of us, unfortunately, picked it up at the time of final exams and lost a whole night's sleep. Others have 2 or 3 of the book, because they've read it so many times the book had become torn and withered. Still others keep having to purchase the book because they let people borrow their copy, and those people never returned it. All in all, if you like sci-fi and you decide to read only one book, you need to pick this one. No wonder the author won so many distinguishing sci-fi writing awards. You'd only understand what i mean if you read the book, you can't get a taste of it just by hearing opinions or reading the back cover of the book. So do yourself a favor and pick up Ender's Game on a day/night when you know you have a good couple of hours to spare! =)

Summary: I thought this was a great book.
Review: I am 14 years old, I was assigned to read this book for school and I did not really care about science fiction that much. I did anyway just so I would get a better grade in that class. I got into the first chapter and I just couldn't keep my self from reading the next. Now about 3 weeks after I was assigned to read the book I am done with it. The rest of my class it on Chapter 6 Which makes it hard to take quizes on earliar chapters because I am getting it confused with the later chapters. I think anyone should get this book all my friends in the class are saying its a good book. I give it a excellent 5 STARS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This was the best book I have ever read!
Review: This book was a great book! It's about a young boy who is sent to another planet to be trained for the army. This whole book is action-packed and very entertaining. If you like war and Science fiction novels, I recommend this book to you. I couldn't put the book down.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: So simple it's best read when you're young.
Review: I just finished reading this book and I'll admit, it's pretty good. I felt it was too simplistic, however, because it "told" rather than "showed." That is, I felt I was being spoon-fed most of the information, especially when Card was relating how Ender felt at various points, etc. I may be breaking the hearts of a few people but, "Tough noogies." The action sequences were good and fun to read but I couldn't help wishing I had read this title when I was younger. (I'd probably be touting it as one of the best books and so on, ad nauseum.) Granted, I appreciated some of the ideas contained within but I didn't feel moved as much as some people have in the past. If you like your books simple and to lay everything out for you, then read this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Truly Excellent Book!!!
Review: When I first read this book at age 12, I cried. Card captured the feelings of an outcast child perfectly. I am a very smart person and have been at the top of my class for all of my life. Because of this I have had very few friends. ENDER"S GAME described exactly how I felt, and in Ender I found a true friend. I am 15 now and intend to bring ENDER with me to college next year.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superb book... possibly the best Sci Fi writer yet...
Review: Quite the wonderful book. Interesting ideas on null gravity battle training (Battle School) and other such topics as the elimination of religion, etc. Buy this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You should read Ender's Game. Read my review to find out why
Review: I always read any book that has more than 100 reviews on Amazon.com, so that's why I tried Ender's Game. This book, at the time I wrote my review, had 655! I think that anything that causes this much debate, even if some comments are bad, must be worth a try. So try it! Chances are you'll love it, like most people who reviewed it. I couldn't figure out, at first, why I liked this book. I had never read a science fiction before this one (since then I've read two of the sequels, which are just as good). And it has so many things I don't normally like in a book: profanity, violence, the military, insect-like aliens taking over the world, and so on. I guess it's because, after you've turned the last page, the violence, etc., isn't what sticks with you. It's the story of Ender, and it's the way you watch what's happening to him, powerless to change anything. And then the unexpected happens and everything you thought about this story is turned upside down. (It's hard to explain this without giving away the ending.) If think you hate science fiction and it's all about hi-tech space wars and aliens, this book is for you. It's also for you whether you like that kind of science fiction, with technology and action, or if you like deep books with moral dilemmas. And if you like both, this book is your dream come true! Anyway, I've said all I can think of for now. So read it! PS. Find out about the upcoming movie at frescopix.com ! I can't wait!
