ENDER'S GAME, by Orson Scott Card
Ender's Game Ender's Game (1985) is a armed forces science fiction book by American author Orson Scott Card. Placed in Earth's foreseeable future, the novel reveals a 6 year old genius star ship commander.
If i told you this book was about a 6 year old genius star ship commander you probably would not read it,even if i told you it was the best written book since Orsen Wells war of the worlds you mite pay a little bit of attention.This book is being made into a movie that for sure will be block buster of the decade trust me when i tell you i am not a sci-fi buff but this is a classic, one of the best written books of the last 30 years.
Ender" is somewhat under rated, due to the simple fact its story of one boy's redemption in the face of unspeakable crimes is concealed as a entertaining space-story. So if you are one of those individuals who as a rule stick to just one category (or as a buddy of mine told me the other day: "I'll read anything but science fiction") PLEASE don't let that stop you from reading this extraordinary book. And if you do give it a chance, please don't read anything at all further about the plot; the full effect of Scott's genius is best felt with no previous preperation (that's why I haven't given a plot summerary). When he ultimately pulls all the threads of the story together, you'll feel like you've just slammed into a brick wall.
Absolutely not to be missed.
