	Ender Wiggin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Andrew "Ender" Wiggin is a fictional character from Orson Scott Card's science fiction story Ender's Game and its sequels (Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind), as well as in the second part of the spin-off series, Ender's Shadow.
		Ender was the youngest of three children at a time of a strict two-child policy, and his existence was called for due to a program aiming to produce commanders for humanity's war against the Formics.
		After Ender mastered it in ordinary conditions, the game was changed from one with direct control of ships to one where he relayed commands to others—his friends and associates from Battle School—and by pitting Ender against the seasoned commander, and previous savior of humanity, Mazer Rackham.

	Excessive Candour
		Ender's Game was not the first full-length book he ever wrote; but the heart of it is a revision of "Ender's Game" (Analog 1977), which was indeed his first SF publication.
		He's not unlike Ender himself, in many ways; but, especially at times when his weltschmerz ascends godwards, he more significantly resembles Gordon R. Dickson's greatest creation, Donal Graeme, the small tough strategic genius whose grasp of strategy is paranormal, and who dominates all 40 years of the Dorsai saga.
		The ultimate failure of Ender's Shadow does not lie in the occasional failure in the cunning of its telling, moments when (for instance) the inevitability of Bean's shadowing-in-advance of the original story become very nearly tedious; the ultimate failure is a failure of philosophy.

		Ender commanded the fleet, and the fleet massacred the buggers.

		It is known that Ender defeated the Elfar during the Roland Regency Rebellion, when Erin the Betrayer raised an army of Dralaar, Kavalaar, Phoenician, and woodland elfar to enslave the non-elfar races.
		Ender prevailed by overseeing his twenty Stealthmasters to command the three thousand human Necrodemian soldiers, decisively crushing the elfar forces that outnumbered his 8-to-1 at the battle of Rosewater.
		Since Ender’s Game was recognized after Ender’s morganti death, many learned folk continue to debate whether another personality was using Ender’s legacy, or whether the boy-genius himself was abandoning his past, save for risking this one last obscure gesture.

		Ender's Game is the story of Ender Wiggin, a child who is chosen to command an army in the battle against the Buggers, an alien race.

		When the story begins, Ender is having a monitor removed from his neck, a monitor which has recorded everything Ender has seen and heard for the past few years of his life to compile information on his suitability as a military leader.

	The Ender Wiggin Saga: Ender's Game; Speaker for the Dead; Xenocide; Children of the Mind
		Ender's struggles against greater and greater odds are told in a thrilling way, raising a lot of sympathy in the reader.
		Ender's final training with Mazer Rackham on the Eros asteroid are so obviously "the real thing" that it looks incredible that Ender, depicted as much more intelligent than the writer of these lines, never suspected a thing.
		Maybe the behavior of children in Ender's Game was unrealistic, but the behavior (and nature) of this super-intelligent being, Jane, is on the verge of being ridiculous at times.

	Science Fiction Book Reviews
		Although women and girls are very much present and active in Ender's Shadow, this book is a glimpse into a boys' world of "snips and snails and puppy dogs' tails": a world of jostling for supremacy, of schoolyard taunts and dares that are deadly serious.
		Ender and Bean are the mouthy runts of the litter who always know and say more than is good for them, who can't stop themselves from showing the others up.
		Ender's Shadow is a fine addition to the "Ender" saga.

	Ender's Game
		Rather, it was because Ender's Game is virtually a textbook in how to develop a strong relationship between a commander and his troops -- with plenty of examples also in how to fail as a commander.
		Ender, however, forces the computer to reprogram itself to allow him to play the game in new, unpredictable ways.
		Almost everyone has at some time felt himself or herself to be in the same kind of no-win situation as Ender Wiggin, and the triumph of the book is not that Ender Wiggin "wins," but that he grows up along the way.

		Ender's parents have received a special dispensation to have a third child in spite of strict population control laws.
		The centerpiece of their education is a simulated battle game at which Ender quickly excels, eventually becoming the youngest commander in history.
		Ender is portrayed as just a pawn in the larger game being played by the I.F., and readers will alternately sympathize with his exploitation and cheer when he is able to make friends in spite of the tremendous forces working to isolate and dehumanize him.

		In particular, Rudnicki, with his lulling, sonorous voice, does a fine job articulating Ender's inner struggle between the kind, peaceful boy he wants to be and the savage, violent actions he is frequently forced to take.
		The plot is enthralling, the characters are complex and realistic, and the descriptions of the battleroom fill your head with fantastic images that make you wish your school had been like this, without the burden of saving humanity.
		Card tells us that Ender loves his sister, that Ender is a genius, that Ender is afraid of becoming the killer that his brother Peter is, but there is precious little showing.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Ender's Shadow
		Even then, while Ender's effect on Bean and the surrounding events is strongly felt, Ender remains more an influence than a character.
		His earliest memories are of fear rather than love and even when he manages to hook up with a group of children on the streets, he still does so on their sufferance and continues to fear for his life.
		Ender's Shadow serves as a welcome return to this world to those already familiar with it and also can serve as an introduction for people who have yet to make the acquaintance of Ender Wiggin.

		The Alpha Centauri series to me was better than the Enders series although that was helped along by the fact that it was based on a game that I was also interested in.
		I suppose the problem with Enders Game is that I couldn't buy into the fact that they really needed Ender in the first place.
		Ender was a super genius but it shouldn't take a super genius to perform the task of destroying the buggers.

	The Command Post - Op-Ed - George W. Bush: A real-life Ender Wiggin.
		Indeed, Card's "Ender's Game" - in which the Earth destroys a distant planet to prevent further war - is itself a strong argument for the kind of preemptive war which Bush has rightly advocated.
		Ender not only posessed the genius to win the game, but was also free to be compltely ruthless, by virtue of his not knowing it WAS a game.
		Instead of Bush being Ender perhaps he is another Peter Wiggin, the inventor of Locke and the proclaimed Hegemon of the World, defiant ruler who looks first and foremost to his own needs while playing his little political games.

		While author OSC maintains a sparse discriptive style with the surroundings, he concentrates on filling out Ender into a living, breathing person of many facets who we feel deeply for as he is thrown into a grinding military program out to wring the last bit of humanity from him.
