About this book
Ender Wiggin, a child prodigy is recruited by the military to attend Battle School in order to prepare for a potential alien invasion. As Ender rises through the ranks and becomes a leader among his peers, he must navigate the complex politics and brutal training that await him, all while struggling with his own identity and sense of morality. Along the way, Ender forges relationships with other students, including his closest allies, Petra and Bean, and his tormentors, Bonzo and Stilson. As the story progresses, Ender's skills are put to the ultimate test when he is chosen to lead the final battle against the alien race known as the Formics. Through Ender's experiences, the novel explores themes of leadership, identity, and the consequences of war in a futuristic and complex setting, while also providing a thrilling and thought-provoking tale of survival and sacrifice.
From the rear cover
'Cards has taken the venerable sf concepts of a superman and an interstellar war against aliens, and, with superb characterization, pacing and language, combined them into a seamless story of compelling power.
