Ender's Game

I absolutely love this book.  It has great characters and they are developed wonderfully.  You end up feeling deeply connected to the main character, Ender.  Also, I can't put this book down.  It is extremely suspenseful and I love how many plot twists that this book has.  I picked up this book because my sister recommended it to me.  She read the Ender's Game in school.  In general I pick up books because of recommendations or if I think the basic idea of the book sounds interesting.  There are some boring bits but they are very short and are followed by very exciting parts.  In general I like to read fast paced fiction novels.  The Ender's Game has great imagery and I love the battle scenes.  It also does a great job at capturing how Ender feels and all of his emotions.  In addition, Ender's Game has a great setting in outer space and I love how the author portrays zero gravity and how combat would be in the future.  Also, in the Ender's Game humanity had won a war against aliens 100 years ago due to a brilliant general.  Now, humanity needs a new general to save humanity from aliens, who out gun and out number the humans and Ender Wiggin might be that general.  I can't wait to read more books in the series and by the author.  I love reading this book.  I think anybody who loves a good, suspenseful, science fiction book would love Ender's Game.
