Orson Scott Card Livres

Andrew Wiggin, dit Ender, n'est pas un garçon comme les autres. Depuis sa naissance, ses faits et gestes sont observés par l'intermédiaire d'un moniteur greffé dans son cerveau. Car ceux qui l'ont conçu ambitionnent de faire de lui le plus grand général de tous les temps, le seul capable de sauver ses semblables de l'invasion des doryphores. Et alors qu'Ender suit pas à pas le dur chemin de son apprentissage de guerrier, ses créateurs mesurent la gravité de leur choix : en donnant naissance à un monstre, n'ont-ils pas damné l'humanité elle-même ?
