Ender's Game: Command School #4 (Of 5)

now occupies Ender Wiggins' life three years after the close of Battle School. The young tactical genius, now all of nine years, has been prematurely promoted to Command School by his superiors. The creative team has done a great job in this faithful, methodical yet thoroughly engrossing adaptation of the first novel of Orson Scott Card's critically-acclaimed and multiple-award-winning series of books. All the details and complexities of Ender's world as he is being prepped to lead the last battle against the alien Formics is brought to vibrant life here, case in point the brutal practice sessions and battle simulations known simply as games. These comic books are a great jumping off point for the novels. I rate this series, "Outstanding."

Ender has graduated from Battle School to Command School where he'll prepare for the approaching Formic invasion...but he refuses to go. Ender's done playing the games, he's done hurting people. So the military brings in the only person who Ender cares about to convince him to go...his sister Valentine. And in the outer reaches of space, Ender meets the man who will be his last teacher...
