Book Synopsis

"Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card is a gripping science fiction novel set in a future where humans are preparing for a war with an alien species known as the Formics. The story follows Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, a highly intelligent and strategically gifted young boy, who is chosen and trained at Battle School to become a commander in the ultimate fight against the Formics.

As Ender progresses through the rigorous training, he faces continuous challenges, both physical and psychological, as the adults around him manipulate and test his abilities.
