Good morning boys - we are approximately one third of the way through our current novel, Ender's Game. It has been very interesting to see your reaction to this book. Think back through the list of class novels we have ploughed through so far in 2013. How does this compare? What do you think of the character of Ender and his two siblings, Peter and Valentine? Was Orson Scott Card just as 'visionary' in his futuristic thinking as Ray Bradbury? Has seeing the movie trailer taken away from the experience or has it enhanced it. How likely is it that you will want to see the movie? Has anything confused you in this story? What does hegemony mean? What is the Polemarch? Who is being manipulated the most? Do you prefer listening to a story with no other distractions or is the experience better when you have your tablet on in front of you or something else to occupy your hands? Should this book be on our class 'Off the Radar' booklist?
