Orson Scott Card's science fiction classic Ender's Game is the winner of the 1985 Nebula Award
for Best Novel and the 1986 Hugo Award for Best Novel. In order to develop a secure defense
against a hostile alien race's next attack government agencies breed child geniuses and train
them as soldiers. A brilliant young boy Andrew Ender Wiggin lives with his kind but distant
parents his sadistic brother Peter and the person he loves more than anyone else his sister
Valentine. Peter and Valentine were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make
the cut-young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for rigorous military
training. Ender's skills make him a leader in school and respected in the Battle Room where
children play at mock battles in zero gravity. Yet growing up in an artificial community of
young soldiers Ender suffers greatly from isolation rivalry from his peers pressure from the
adult teachers and an unsettling fear of the alien invaders. His psychological battles include
loneliness fear that he is becoming like the cruel brother he remembers and fanning the
flames of devotion to his beloved sister. Is Ender the general Earth needs? But Ender is not
the only result of the genetic experiments. The war with the Buggers has been raging for a
hundred years and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long.
Ender's two older siblings are every bit as unusual as he is but in very different ways.
Between the three of them lie the abilities to remake a world. If that is the world survives.
