Product Information

Welcome to the Enderverse. When " Ender's Game " was first published as a novella twenty-five years ago few would have predicted that it would become one of the most successful ventures in publishing history. Expanded into a novel in 1985, Ender's Game won both the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award for Best Novel. Never out of print and translated into dozens of languages, it is the rare work of fiction that can truly be said to have transcended a genre. Ender's Game and its sequels have won dozens of prestigious awards and are as popular today among teens and young readers as adults. First Meetings is a collection of three novellas-plus the original " Ender's Game "-that journey into the origins and the destiny of one Ender Wiggin. " The Polish Boy " begins in the wake between the first two Bugger Wars when the Hegemony is desperate to recruit brilliant military commanders to repel the alien invasion. In John Paul Wiggin-the future father of Ender -they believe they may have found their man. Or boy. In " Teacher's Pest "-a novella written especially for this collection-a brilliant but insufferably arrogant John Paul Wiggin, now an American university student, matches wits with an equally brilliant graduate student named Theresa Brown. It is many years since the end of the Bugger Wars in " The Investment Counselor ." Ender's reputation as a hero and savior has suffered a horrible reversal. Banished from Earth and slandered as a mass murderer, twenty-year-old Andrew Wiggin wanders incognito from planet to planet as a fugitive. Until a blackmailing tax inspector compromises his identity and threatens to expose Ender the Xenocide. Also reprinted here is the original landmark novella, " Ender's Game, " which first appeared in 1977. Fully illustrated, First Meetings is Orson Scott Card writing at the height of his considerable power about his most compelling character.

    Great Background About Ender's Parents and Jane

    This book provides a basis for school discussions of Ender's Game. It contains four stories. Two focus on Ender's parents, the first on his father in Poland and the second on the meeting of his father and mother. If one starts with Ender's Game and then later reads these background stories, appreciation grows for the talent and brilliance of Ender's parents. It becomes clear how these two provided the exceptional genes for three brilliant children: Peter, Valentine and Andrew (Ender). In fact, these stories lead the reader to want even more information about the early years of the father and mother. Perhaps Orson Scott Card can oblige with a full novel about the two. Another of the stories tells how Ender first "met" Jane, the sentient entity living in the electronic world of computers. ...
