Title: R is for Ricochet Title: Enders Game Author: Orson Scott Card Genre: Fiction / Science Fiction / Childrens / High Tech Format: 9 CDs., 10 hrs. 30 mins. (Unabridged) Synopsis: Andrew Ender Wiggin thinks he is playing computer-simulated war games at the Battle School; in fact, he is engaged in something far more desperate. Ender is the result of decades of genetic experimentation, Earths attempt to make the military genius that the planet needs in its all-out war with an alien enemy. Ender Wiggin is six years old when his training begins. He will grow up fast. Enders two older siblings, Peter and Valentine, are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways. Between three of them lie the abilities to remake a worldif the world survives. This, the authors definitive edition, also includes an original postscript written and recorded by the author himself, in which he discusses the origins of the novel. Review: Gale Research That ambition and talent was both revealed and recognized in 1985, when Card released Ender's Game. This novel began as a short story, which Card describes in a CA interview as "still the most popular and the most reprinted of my stories, and I still have people tell me that they like it better than the novel.... When I started working on the novel that became Speaker for the Dead, a breakthrough for me in that story was realizing that the main character should be Ender Wiggin. That made it a kind of sequel, although its plot had nothing to do with the original plot; it was just using a character.... I told the publisher, Tom Doherty, that I needed to do a novel version of `Ender's Game' just to set up Speaker for the Dead. That's the only reason `Ender's Game' ever became a novel."
