Is it just a game?

From the cover:

Recruited for military training by the world government, Ender's childhood ends the moment he enters his new home: Battle School. Among the elite recruits, Ender proves himself to be a genius among geniuses. In simulated war games, he excels. But is the pressure and loneliness taking its toll on Ender? Simulations are one thing. How will Ender perform in real combat conditions? After all, Battle School is just a game. Right?

Search for self:

As Ender trains to become a soldier, he begins to loose part of himself, and he deeply fears becoming like his worst tormentor--his brother, Peter.

This sci-fi classic will make you consider the possiblities for our future and make you examine the reality of your present.
