Ender’s Game (1985) is the best-known novel by Orson Scott Card,[1] set in a future where mankind is facing annihilation by an alien society, the insectoid “Buggers” (more formally known as “Formics”). Having barely survived two separate Bugger invasions, humanity is obliged to accept the rule of a heavy-handed hegemony and select children are sent into military training at a very young age to supply commanders for their fleets in hopes of surviving a projected third invasion.

Well, its an excellent book by boy is that cover terrible. Looks more like Commander Keen.
Hmmm…actually, now that I think about it, this isn't exactly the BEST book by OSC. I think the Worthing Saga's better.
why can't we actually do something like that in the real military?
