My Review of Ender's Game

I just posted the following on a pretty cool site: Goodreads. Enjoy.

Ender's Game (Ender's Saga, Book 1) Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card


My review


rating: 5 of 5 stars
Another one I try to read yearly. One of the best ever written. When an author writes a story that applies to everyone, then he has achieved something that few ever do, he has written a new piece of the monomyth for humankind. Scott achieved that with this novel. And winning back-to-back Hugo and Nebula awards for this book and its sequel Speaker for the Dead is also a first of its kind. Regardless of anyone's genre preferences, or if someone is interested in a good introduction to science fiction, Ender's Game stands as a stellar achievement of the human literary effort.
