Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

Ender's Game (Ender Saga, #1)

by Orson Scott Card

Ender Wiggin is Battle School's latest recruit. His teachers reckon he could become a great leader. And they need one. A vast alien force is headed for Earth, its mission: the annihilation of all human life. Ender could be our only hope. But first he must survive the most brutal military training program in the galaxy...With its explosive storyline, pump-action excitement and hugely engaging central characters, Ender's Game is 2002's absolute must-read for teenaged boys. Forget schools for wizards, this is where the *real* action is.

This was on my TBR list fooorrreeeeveeerr! I don't know why I waited so long to read it. Maybe because sci-fi isn't usually my thing. Especially when it's space and alien related. But this was really good. Probably because it's about the boy and manipulation and motivations and being "human" rather than the aliens.

I really enjoyed it and I'm sure I'll read more from this series in the future.
