| Summary |
Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card's award-winning 1985 novel, has been discovered and rediscovered by generations of science fiction fans and young adult readers, banned and challenged in schools, assigned in high school English classes, and adopted as reading by the US Marine Corps. Ender's Game and its sequels explores rich themes?the violence and cruelty of children, the role of empathy in war, and the balance of individual dignity and the social good?with compelling elements of a coming-of-age story and exciting and immersive battle scenes.
