Ender's game is about a 6 year old boy, who ends up committing xenocide at the age of 11 on an alien race called buggers. The book starts with Ender getting his monitor removed from the back of his neck. He is known as a Third, for the Starways Congress and the Hegemon have made a law that each family can only have 2 children, but if a family is to have a third, they have to fill out special paper work to have the child. After school, a boy named Stilson wouldn't let him on the bus, and Ender beat him to a pulp. He ends up murdering Stilson, but does not go to Juvenile hall. After he goes to battle school, he ends up killing another child. But he hadn't meant to. He then goes to where a Bugger colony had been. At that place he plays a simulation, which actually is real life, so he just about exterminates all the buggers. He then goes to the planet where the buggers all lived on a different planet, where a baby hive queen was waiting in it's cocoon for him. He takes the cocoon with him where ever he goes to find a place for it to live.
It is a very good book, and I recommend it for any science fiction readers.
