enders game

Enders Game
By: Orson Scott Card

   The book enders game is a science fiction book that happens in the future. The book is about a young boy named ender Wiggin who grows up on earth but is chosen to go to battle school. In this book before The story takes place there was a war with the humans and an alien race we humans call "buggers". There is some footage of the war but it seems that some parts where taken out. The school is a training place to teach students how to battle by playing some games on these laptop like things called "desks". but that isnt the only thing they train with...
     In this school they play a game in suits that have laser tag like guns to shoot each other with, where ever you are shot your suit will restrict movement there. along with that, there is a trick to the game... the battle room has zero gravity. For me, I though that one of the most interesting things in this book is how  the students act with each other in the battle room. I agree with the teachers of the school that this will help the kids because they need to be prepared for zero gravity combat. I thought that how the author put these children together was brilliant because it shows the children what the military is like. This book changed my thoughts of deception and how the teachers lack of effort affects the students because to me it feels like the students run the school by themselves.
   All together, I thought this was an amazing book because of the feeling it gives you while reading. Sometimes i felt the emotions and pain that was brought to the characters. This book is one of my favorites because of how real the feelings in it are. I highly suggest reading it. Enders game the movie comes out this November. Over all, it is a great read. A+
