A review by ury949
Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

3.0

I liked the themes of treating life as a game, or treating a game as the most important thing in one's life. This was a very forest for the trees sort of message about why we take some things so seriously and obsess over the things we do. The ending, with the message from the aliens, however, seemed really silly and irrelevant. The book could have ended after the final game - but I suppose it plays into the other books that follow it... I'm not interested in reading them.
