Ender’s Game

At only 6 years old, young Ender is plucked from his family, and the world that he knows, and thrust into a world of training, learning, and competition meant to groom him into becoming that great leader of Earth’s military forces. Card’s most famous novel is a masterpiece of both science fiction and psychology.
