Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card
Reviewed by Shanta
Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card is the best science fiction book I have ever read! Ender, an intelligent six-year old, joins a Battle School in order to fight aliens (or buggers) that attacked Earth. Ender learns about friendship, love, trust, and forgiveness as his quest continues, and he soon becomes an honorable leader. I recommend this book to both girls and boys, especially if they like books relating to space and aliens. However, I would not recommend this book to kids younger than 10 years old for some of the language that is used. This book is suspenseful from the first word to the last. The characters experienced some feelings like I have (like sorrow, when seeing somebody leave) and that made the characters seem real. Some things were confusing, like how the author switched settings abruptly, but the story still managed to flow smoothly. It actually creates more suspense! I can't wait to continue the Ender's Game saga, and I am looking forward to reading more books by Orson Scott Card!
