This book is incredible

@sgt-dan this book is a masterpiece. I can't thank you enough. I relate to this main character on many levels. Except I'm the oldest, wasn't born out of orders from a global communistic government and when told I was going to be this great Mormon leader uniting the church or some big boss at work if I followed the orders of my crooked family, I walked away from those various situations seeing as I had the choice and never really enjoyed being controlled for someone else's prerogatives. Essentially compromising one's morals for glory.

However, if I was told the truth at a early age like Ender was at 6 years old, I would have responded differently.

The last chapter Ender was given mostly the whole truth of why the Government has chosen him and how his parents had reformed to being 'good' citizens and how even though his father helped establish the 2 only kid rule they still had a third under orders of the government. However, didn't really explain the possible genetic manipulation of how Ender was the result of combining the older brother with the middle child sister to create ender. The book only implies such a scenario.

Ender is being built up to bring down everyone. Being put on a pedestal just make him fight his way to the top all the while earning the respect of his piers. But it's being done in the most manipulative and calculated way. It's absolutely cold and machine minded. But the galaxy is seemingly depended upon him being a this great War hero against some alien race so let the games begin!

Cognitive dissonance, Orwellian survilence, Handlers, Controlers, Aliens, Space, grooming of little kids to be war general's just to name some crazy themes in this book. This book has it all. Truly, it is must read.
