review:
This novel raises very interesting philosophical questions. When do children become adults, and really what difference is there between children and adults? In whom do we put our trust and why? What is the nature of good and evil? Is war inevitable, and is "righteous" war ever really possible?
I never felt completely secure reading this novel-like Ender, the reader is constantly second-guessing everyone's intentions. Brilliant twist at the end.

This book is incredibly charming, well-written and funny. Besides that, the ideas of alternate realities, free will, and how they interplay is just too much fun to think about.

This book might give you nightmares, but it's worth reading. Unlike some dystopian novels, it leaves no message of hope. It is a book purely of fear-but the worst fear is that we will let society get to this point in the first place.

This book is a unique perspective on the famous Anne Frank story. While definitely told within the Jewish context, we also get to see how gentiles experienced the war. Well written but not at all dry, we also get many interesting little details about the night the gestapo found the Annex.
