Winner of the Hugo and Nebula Awards In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as soldiers. A brilliant young boy, Andrew "Ender" Wiggin lives with his kind but distant parents, his sadistic brother Peter, and the person he loves more than anyone else, his sister Valentine. Peter and Valentine were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make the cut--young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for rigorous military training. Ender's skills make him a leader in school and respected in the Battle Room, where children play at mock battles in zero gravity. Yet growing up in an artificial community of young soldiers Ender suffers greatly from isolation, rivalry from his peers, pressure from the adult teachers, and an unsettling fear of the alien invaders. His psychological battles include loneliness, fear that he is becoming like the cruel brother he remembers, and fanning the flames of devotion to his beloved sister. Is Ender the general Earth needs? But Ender is not the only result of the genetic experiments. The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long. Ender's two older siblings are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways. Between the three of them lie the abilities to remake a world. If, that is, the world survives.
这部书值得纪念的一点,与书本身无关:它是我第一部在ipad上读完的电子书。我预言,在不久的将来,实体书将越来越少,就像实体信一样。我要好好收藏现有的实体书,因为的确不打算买很多实体书了。 那两个星期,每天晚上抱着ipad,躲在床的一个角落,像得了强迫症似的一...

評分《 安德的游戏》这本书,在我第一眼看到封面的时候,我直觉是一本成人的专业书,而且是很不容易懂的那种。我对这种书一般是敬而远之的,因为自己水平有限,买了也看不懂,就不浪费作者的心血我的钱财了。后来,在豆瓣上看到书评,几乎可以用好评如潮来形容。从书评内容来看...
評分论起喜欢的人物,仍然是安德,偏重于前两部里的他。其实维京家的三个孩子我都喜欢。各种性格才华的极端造造成了不真实,但心理的斗争,精神的纠缠又是真实的。 还有那个对安德说“安拉”的孩子。 而行文的精彩,记忆最深的有以下几处:《安德的游戏》彼德和华伦蒂的控制与反控...
看到三分之二的時候,覺得這其實是講如何將有苗頭的天生殺人狂人為養成的故事,還挺佩服幕後推手;結果後三分之一的發展好看得很,還基本都圓上瞭。這樣看來電影完全沒把事情講清楚啊。
评分大概十年前我還在每個月都買《科幻世界》的時候,就看到這本書每一期都齣現在郵購廣告裏(郵購這個詞好古老= =)。十年後它拍成瞭電影纔想起把它給看瞭,感想就是科幻顯然也是分年齡段的。
