Summary: This Book Hooked Me on Orson Scott Card
Review: I read this book years ago. When my father finished this book (a gift that he never would have bought for himself), he came into my room and handed it to me. "Read it," was all he said. Thirteen years old at the time, I was daunted by the length, but the first page sucked me in. Never had I read an author that made me see through a character's eyes like Mr. Card. I have read this book every two years since, and it affects this cynic everytime. Ender Wiggen is comparable to DUNE's Paul Muad'dib; creator, destroyer, and ultimately savior. I would give this book more than 5 stars if I could.

Summary: Inspirational
Review: People who read these books don't just like them, they love them. Andrew Wiggen has rapidly become one of the best-beloved characters in the history of science fiction. Card (the author) is indeed gifted among writers.

Summary: One of the best speculative fiction books ever!
Review: When I first read this book I had just turned 11, it was recommended to me by someone who works with my father (he works for a book company) Naturally, I read it, and I was unable to put it down! I have read it many times now and I think that one of the reasons why it was so successful is because the struggle that Ender goes through, not fitting in, having no flaws, can relate to almost every single person in the world today, especially me, because I have trouble "fitting in" in school. I really loved it and have readthe whole series and recommend ALL of the books!

Summary: Ender's Game, One of the best books I've read
Review: Ender's Game was the first book of Orson Scott Card i read. I loved the book. I finished it in two days. Once you start reading, you can't stop at the end of a chapter. The story focuses on you child, Ender Wiggin. Ender is adopted into the Battle School, where he is trained to save the Earth from an alien species called the Buggers. it is an excellent book to read. Finished the series and want to read more good Orson Scott Card books??? The Homecoming Series is very good, I have also read that series. Ender's Game (and the rest of the series) is an excellent book and one of Card's best.

Summary: The Best
Review: This is my absolute favorite book. Never before have I been able to recommend a book to all my friends and also have them all thoroughly enjoy it as much as I did. I adore books and reading altogether, but Ender's Game is the best book I have EVER read.

Summary: What a great beginning
Review: Wow, this power novel is a great beginning to the Ender series. Leaving the end open Card leaves room for a sequel which is just as good. Although I am only about to start the fourth of the six in the series, Enders Game couldn't have been a better beginning. It's such a great book that I couldn't put it down even for dinner. I stayed up until 4 in the morning just so that I could finish it.

Summary: Very impresive
Review: Recently, I went on vacation. My close friend asked to borrow a book of mine and in return, he shoved his battered copy of Ender's game into my hand. I shoved it into my suitcase.I hate science fiction! I have read hundreds of books and can count on one hand how many were science fiction. But a funny thing happened on my trip. I finished the two books I had with me..uh-oh. So I rummaged through my suitcase and dug out this book. This book is about a young boy, Ender Wiggin, who is a genious, a frowned upon "third", or a third child, in a society where NO ONE has three children. He goes off to military school and is destined to become a great miliary leader in the war against the "buggers", a harsh alien race. He is pulled away from his family, his hated brother and loved sister. This book was absolutely absorbing. I read the whole thing in two days, pretty good for me, who scrutinized books and reads them many times. I highly recommend this book to people of all ages who need to escape the real world and meet ender and his feirce group of first grade friends, and read all about their accomplishments.

Summary: Awesome!
Review: Orson Scott Card did a wonderful job writing this book. I finished it in under two days, because I couldn't put it down! It has a great plot, that is even more enhanced by Cards writing ability, and will keep you hooked until you get to the shocking ending. Once you've read it you'll want to go back and read it again, to look for hints Card drops throughout the book about the outcome of the Bugger Wars. A very good book that I would recomend to anyone of any age.

Summary: A GREAT read for the teen crowd.
Review: This is probably the oldest book in existence that's actually popular among teenagers. And there's little wonder as to why. It incorporates nicely a light, action filled sci-fi plot with equally lean elements of psychology. All the elements that made The Matrix a teenage hit.

Summary: My Favorite Book of All Time
Review: I checked this book out from my school library because in my school, you have to check out one book, or else. So I grabbed it, remembering that someone said we would read it in high school, and read it. It was so incredibly good. I actually _cried_ at the end, Ender's victory was so gorgeous. It inspired me, something that usually doesn't happen from a book, to write a book, one of my favorite hobbies. This book is extremely good, and the end is so suprising, and Ender's Shadow is good too.
