In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next
attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as
soldiers. A brilliant young boy, Andrew "Ender" Wiggin lives with his
kind but distant parents, his sadistic brother Peter, and the person he
loves more than anyone else, his sister Valentine. Peter and Valentine
were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make the
cut--young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for
rigorous military training.
Ender's skills make him a leader in school and respected in the Battle Room, where children play at mock battles in zero gravity. Yet growing up in an artificial community of young soldiers, Ender suffers greatly from isolation, rivalry from his peers, pressure from the adult teachers, and an unsettling fear of the alien invaders. His psychological battles include loneliness, fear Ender's Game (The Ender Quintet)
