            Ender Wiggin, a third (which is a third child of a family, since only two are allowed by law). He is what is considered the hope of the human race, and is taken to battle school at the age of 6. There he goes through training and is forced into an army of a game played in battle school years before the rules say he can. After becoming the best the school has ever had, he gets his own army to command. He is mad at first since his army consists of only new recruits and player not wanted by any other commander. Then after winning every battle he is taken to command school, where he plays a simulator which will help him understand how to command a fleet better.

            Eventually, when it gets too easy for Ender, his friends from battle school become secondary commanders and fighters of Ender’s fleet. After becoming good enough, he has his final test on the simulator. He’s outnumbered one to ten thousand, or possibly more. He decides to go all or nothing, and flies through all of the enemy ships to their home planet. He uses a weapon to destroy their planet, and when it explodes it takes out every enemy ship in its path. When the simulation is over, Mazer Rackham, his teacher, tells him it was never a simulation, that he was actually fighting the buggers, their enemies. Not too long after the wars with the buggers was over, his sister Valentine comes to him and asks him to come with her to the bugger’s home world to live with her. He says yes and while exploring, he finds a place he that only existed in a game he played in battle school.
