Summary: A mother's 2 cents
Review: I have not read this book, but my 15 - year old son has. What is remarkable about this? My son HATES to read! This is the first book he has ever voluntarily read, and he is now reading others in the series. In my opinion, this is nothing short of a miracle. he is not only reading these books, he is devouring them! I caught him reading Ender's Shadow at 2:30 a.m. this morning. Always in the past when I caught him staying up till the early hours of the morning, it was because he was playing computer games. So, any parents of teenage sons who you despair of ever getting to read anything but comic books, I highly reccomend you try them on the "Ender" series.

Summary: Dull, childish story. Not very good.
Review: I bought this book because of the cult following it has.
I just dont get it. The story is dull, and sci-fi is completely illogical.
Yes, there is a nice surprise ending, but you have to read through lots of borring text before you reach it. I just did not like it.

Summary: THE EXTREME WORLD OF ENDER'S GAME
Review: Ender's Game... perhaps one of the best science fiction novels written in our time.
This is a story of a young boy who is pushed to and beyond his limits in order to save Earth. Ender has an older brother, Peter, who hates Ender for his existence. Ender was born because Peter wasn't good enough. His older sister, Valentine, loves Ender with all her heart and is very protective of him. When Ender is only six years old, he is taken from his family and sent to battle school. Battle school is a school in space that finds naturally brilliant children and teaches them to become military geniuses. Here, Ender is forced to play 'the games,' and wins all of them. To him, losing is the worse thing that could every happen.
Orson Scott Card's characters show so much character development throughout this story it's amazing. Orson Scott Card is a fantastic author, and if you enjoyed this book, I recommend Ender's Shadow to you!

Summary: Best Sci-Fi Book Ever
Review: Ender's Game is the reason I was drawn into sci-fi. The coming of age of a military genius in a fight for Earth's survival is simply fantastic. Orson Scott Card is great at character development and is able to actually make the reader like the characters he writes about. Also, the battle sequences inside the school were easy to follow and very exciting. This book is what I compare all sci-fi against and not many can hold a candle to this book.

Summary: Great Book!!!
Review: I picked up this book at the advice of a friend. I read it, and loved it...then lent it to a friend. Everyone who read it gave it to a friend to read...and everyone loved it. I read the rest of the series and it got a bit "crazy", but this book is one you dare not pass up!!!

Summary: Hell Yeah!!
Review: I got this book a few years ago for a b-day present. i thought it would be another book to read, but once i sat down to read it, i instantly fell in love with it. i have read it four times and the rest of the series, including ender's shadow. i think that any kid between 13 and 25 should read this book.

Summary: Simply Amazing
Review: I was required to read this book in High School. While I have enjoyed reading for most of my life, this book did much more than give me something to read. Through Ender's Game I was able to understand that every situation is different to every person. It was through this book that I am able today to see both sides of an arguement. When any of my friends graduate high school OR college this book is, at least, part of their graduation present. I have read the entire series (so far) of Ender, but this one is entirely different in its importance on me.

Summary: Wow
Review: If your reading this reveiw I am guessing that you have never read this book. If you have never read this book I want to know what sort of sheltered life you have lived because you are missing out on the BEST reading experience you will ever have. Read this book. If you have already read this book, read it again. If you don't like it then read it again. Continue reading this book until you love it. This is the BEST book in the world and most people fall in love with it the first time they read it.

Summary: Psy-fi
Review: This is psychological science fiction- the technology and concepts serve the story, not the other way around. It reads, however, like it's a simple story. I found it a page turner, as apparently many other people on amazon did. And to me, this is the reason why so many people like this book. Smart books that read easily are hard to come by. I read a few reviews that found the book to be boring; I never found it to be. The battle room sequences might be hard to follow if you're not an action fan...some people might find the politics behind Peter and Valentine's online column efforts boring...and a lot of people seem to flat out reject the idea of kids acting like adults. Yet, although the kids are unrealistically clever and intelligent, they're still quite immature, bullying and teasing each other. They're genetically engineered to learn faster, Card briefly explains (which might be why some reviewers seemed to miss the explantion), but they're still kids. Ender is a character that's very easy to identify with. He has talents that he does not understand. I often felt like I would have reacted to things the same way he does. If I didn't feel the same way he did, I at least understood his reasons. This book is closer to second person perspective than any other book I've read.

Summary: Better than I expected it to be.
Review: A friend of mine pushed this book on me telling me I had to read it. He already convinced me once to read When Gravity Fails by Effinger, and I almost didn't finish it because, well, I don't like Sci-Fi. Ender's Game was a decent book, it wasn't monumental or anything, but it kept me entertained for a couple of hours. Card is a decent writer and he puts together a good story.
