Story: The book, Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card, revolved around a young boy, Andrew ‘Ender’ Wiggin, who was isolated and manipulated by adults to lead an army at a young age. Right from the beginning, even before entering Battle School to begin training to be commander, adults began taking action to take Ender under their control, preparing him for something they believed to be right. Ender was tested and pushed past his limits throughout his Battle School years, but they still persisted, forcing him to do tasks that he wasn’t even aware of, like unknowingly killing an entire colonization, which the society called ‘Buggers’. After being damaged by manipulation for years and realizing what the adults around him manipulated him to do, he made it a goal to fix the damage that he had done to the colony of a planet that he had destroyed and cause peace instead of havoc (which he had unintentionally caused).

Andrew “Ender” Wiggin was a completely normal boy. Was being a key word. When Ender was small, the government installed a monitor on the back of his neck so they could observe his actions and judge whether he was fit to join the army. Decades, maybe a whole century before, aliens, called “buggers”, attacked the planet. Humans were outgunned, outnumbered, and a sure defeat seemed to be on the way. If it weren’t for the best general in history of earth, mankind would have been destroyed. The government is positive the buggers will come back, so they take certain children at the age of six, and drive them mad. When Ender turned six, he was chosen to join the army. He was thought of as “the one”, the best of the best. But once you’re in the army, you aren’t a child anymore…
