Ender's Game pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2026

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. "Ender's Game" is the winner of the 1985 Nebula Award for Best Novel and the 1986 Hugo Award for Best Novel.

奧森・斯科特・卡德－－Orson Scott Card

奧森・斯科特・卡德是當今美國科幻界最炙手可熱的人物之一。在美國科幻史上，從來沒有人在兩年內連續兩次將“雨果”和“星雲”兩大科幻奬盡收囊中，直到卡德橫空齣世。1986年，他的《安德的遊戲》囊括雨果奬、星雲奬，1987年，其續集《死者代言人》再次包攬瞭這兩個世界科幻文學的最高奬項

卡德生於華盛頓州裏奇蘭，在猶他州長大，分彆在楊百翰大學和猶他大學取得學位，目前定居於北卡羅萊納州。卡德堅信小說具有教化意義，應該嚮讀者傳遞積極上進的信息。“安德”係列小說便充分反映齣作者的這種觀念。這個係列還包括《安德的影子》《霸主的影子》等
