Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card

This is the best science fiction novel I’ve read in years.

I had not read the original short story, so the plot was new to me. The novel tells the story of a 6-year old outcast who is selected and rigorously trained to lead Earth’s battle fleet in a war against an alien race. The boy is a genius, and at several points I wondered that the author may also be one, to construct such intelligent, glib dialog and fascinating situations.

The best thing I can say about this book is that I immediately purchased the sequel.

There are some wonderful reviews of the book at the Amazon links below.
