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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Orson Scott Card's\u003ci\u003e Ender's Game\u003c\/i\u003e is the winner of the 1985 Nebula Award for Best Novel and the 1986 Hugo Award for Best Novel. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e THE ENDER UNIVERSE \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Ender series\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eEnder's Game\u003c\/i\u003e \/\u003ci\u003e Ender in Exile \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eSpeaker for the Dead \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eXenocide \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eChildren of the Mind\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Ender's Shadow series\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eEnder's Shadow \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eShadow of the Hegemon \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eShadow Puppets \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eShadow of the Giant \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eShadows in Flight\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eChildren of the Fleet\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The First Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eEarth Unaware \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eEarth Afire \u003c\/i\u003e\/ \u003ci\u003eEarth Awakens\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The Second Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Swarm \u003c\/i\u003e\/\u003ci\u003eThe Hive\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Ender novellas\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eA War of Gifts \u003c\/i\u003e\/\u003ci\u003eFirst Meetings\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eORSON SCOTT CARD is the author of the international bestsellers \u003ci\u003eShadow of the Giant\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eShadow Puppets\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eShadow of the Hegemon\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eEnder's Shadow\u003c\/i\u003e, and of the beloved classic of science fiction, \u003ci\u003eEnder's Game\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as the acclaimed fantasy series The Tales of Alvin Maker.
