When I first purchased Ender's Game, I did not think I would enjoy the book since it is a science fiction novel. Well, I soon lost my initial skepticim about the book as I thouroughly enjoyed reading it. Although Ender's Game is a science ficiton novel, the plot circulates around themes that relate to today's society. For example, Ender's education questions the educational standards for the gifted. Meanwhile, the treatment of the "bugges" depicts the devastating effects of miscommunication and subsequently created prejudices.
