具体描述

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.

读后感

这真是一个残忍的故事。一群大人为了所谓的“爱国爱乡爱地球“的拯救人类的英雄情结，把一个几岁大的小孩心中残暴的一面引诱出来，继而培养他成为”人虫“大战的总司令。可是这场战争真的有意义吗？虫族已经不再挑起战争，而人类或是为了安心，或是为了安抚地球动荡不安的情绪...  

《 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...  

蕴含了巨大的处世和自省自勉的能量,抱着书躺在床上废寝忘食了几天--我看书慢,看好书更慢,总有太多让我折过来回味的地方~细节也很丰富,主人公的心理描写也相当成功,最关键的还是节奏一流啊!所以常常被我用来送给好友,买了好几本,还是觉得不够...  

一部很精彩的小说，讲述了在人虫战争背景之下的几个少年天才的成长过程，其中以安德为小说的主人公，安德以他超乎完美的天才能力——我个人认为他已经差不多接近上帝了——克服了诸多几乎无法克服的困难，艰难之极，最终成长为一个天才的军事指挥官，指挥地球的舰队以弱胜强击...

大概十年前我还在每个月都买《科幻世界》的时候，就看到这本书每一期都出现在邮购广告里（邮购这个词好古老= =）。十年后它拍成了电影才想起把它给看了，感想就是科幻显然也是分年龄段的。

My appreciation is well beyond words.

看到三分之二的时候，觉得这其实是讲如何将有苗头的天生杀人狂人为养成的故事，还挺佩服幕后推手；结果后三分之一的发展好看得很，还基本都圆上了。这样看来电影完全没把事情讲清楚啊。

very enlightening. I wish I could be like Ender.
