Ender's Game

Enders Game by Orson Scott Card.

The author has written very many books and Enders Game is his best seller. The book is currently being made into a movie. The story is about a kid genius named Ender who has to save the world from alien buggers. The theme of the novel is as people grow and develop the world will be seen in many different ways, such as what it means to be a human. The question of what it means to be human showed up several times in Ender's Game. In the first place, children are said to be just as real of human beings as grown ups, even as the children are taken away from a normal childhood. It is, after all, a group of children who save the world. But more important than this, to be human is to have empathy.

Ender Wiggin, the third in a family of child geniuses, is picked by the military forces to save the world. Before being chosen Ender wears a unique monitor that allows the heads of the military to see things as Ender does. The military picks him and in order to help save the world from the buggers, Ender has to leave his family and go to an international military school. At that school Ender learns many things and becomes the leader in his army. Ender also becomes a tutor-like person who helps other kids improve their battle skills. When Ender has to switch armies he spirals into depression and goes into the game room. But are the games that he's playing really games?

I would recommend this book to people because it's really good, with a plot twist that completely changes what you already would have read in the story. Not only if the novel good because of that but the details are so vivid that it makes you feel like you're really inside of the story.READ THIS BOOK NOW. But don't go see the movie before your read it because we all know that movies are always worse than the books.
