Ender's Game, and other "Ender" series novels.

Just curious as too how many of you other PS fans have read the series? It is excellent, IMHO one of the best Sci-fi/Military Series I've read. PS really reminds me of the strategy that Ender and Bean adopt to get the job done. Anyway, just what the game reminds me of, and one of the reasons I can't wait to play.

I've read Ender's Game and Speaker for the dead. I thought Ender's game was perhaps one of the greatest scifi novels of all time, but I hated Speaker for the dead, so that was it for me.

I read Ender's Game several years ago and enjoyed it immensly. Highly recommended to any sci-fi fan.

umm i dont want to sound like a newb but what is enders game about? iv heard of it but never read it.

If you don't like speaker, I would suggest moving straight past some of the books to Ender's Shadow. It basically tells Ender's Game from Bean's point of view. The other books follow bean on earth. Really excellent.

Basicall Ender's game is about a young boy taken into a military school in order to combat some aliens. Really, repeat Really!, over simplifying though. Give it a read.

Great series. I read Ender's shadow, which is the parallel book to ender's game, a little while ago and it was pretty good as well.
