About This Book
Winner of the Hugo and Nebula Awards
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.
