[Opinions] Ender Wiggin/Ender's Game
in reply to a message by El Duque
FYI, Ender Wiggin is the main character in a very, very popular series of sci-fi books by Orson Scott Card.
(Ender's real name is Andrew)
The book Ender's Game is about a futuristic Earth that has been repeatively attacked by an alien civilization. Ender is taken away from his family at age 6 to go to Battle School, where he trains with other children to save the world. It sounds like a kids' story, but it's not. Ender ends up killing several other children and is tricked into becoming a mass murderer.
I love the books, but I'm not sure about naming a kid after Ender. I believe several obsessed fans of the books have.
Also, an Ender's Game movie is in the works.
