Enders Game

Never been into sci fi books but I love to read. My friend told me to pick this book up and give it a chance, so i did. Wow I must say this is one of the best books I've ever read. I doubt i'll still ever get into sci fi books but I will complete this series. The book blew me away.

Sadly the rest of the series is good, but they get into scifi pretty deep. Nothing can ever beat the first one that is for sure

It is an interesting book, and just as impressively, there are a number of sequel books, as well as an interesting twist called "Ender's Shadow", which is the story of Bean. I think it is 4 or 5 books total, all very good and thought provoking.

I read that so many years ago that I can't even remember, yet I remember the story vividly. Awesome book.

Unfortunately, it prompted me to buy every other Orson Scott Card book I could get my hands on which, of course, I didn't read.

Highly recommended to those of you that are into reading.

Edit: Don't drop anything else about the plot in here. We're on the verge of a spoiler.
