I am ashamed to say that I'm a writer of scifi and fantasy and I had never read this classic before.[return][return]Ender Wiggin isn't simply a recruit in the Earth's battle against the buggers. He's the chosen one, monitored before he was even born with one specific task in mind: save humankind. At age six, he's sent to begin his training amongst other brilliant children. His coursework isn't merely academics; it's psychological manipulation at the highest, with the goal of isolating Ender and forcing him to be the best soldier ever produced... whether he wants to be or not.[return][return]I was hooked within the first chapter. It's a disturbing story on many levels, but a gripping one because of the fast pace and ease of reading. It flows (at least, up till the ending when it kind of info dumps). Card made Ender a sympathetic character with a supporting cast that felt just as real.
