Ender's Game
by Orson Scott Card
Ender’s game is a beautifully written science fiction that explains the early life of genius child Andrew(Ender) Wiggins. It engages excellently in subjects of engineering, science, psychology, philosophy, and politics.
I was personally delighted reading all the fantastic ways that Ender pulled through and how his brilliance made him an outcast. How respect made the children cold shoulder Ender.
I found it amazing that the adults made the training “for kids” while the kids were soldiers like adults. It brings a lot of questions about maturity and the question of how far a brilliant child can be pushed
I found myself questioning the extremes of good and evil through valentine and seeing how they interacted and were almost in unison in some ways. It made me watch Ender pull back and forth between the two. You also see manipulation tactics on practically all the charachters and it was interesting to see how desperation made people crawl to the surface. Such as Graff picking on Ender.
The criticism I have for this book is that it was quite offensive in some parts. It is also quite vulgar when describing children. Though this might be just a play on the theme of maturity in children, I’m not quite sure.
