The Moood of the Story

The mood of the story is certainly Exciting. Fast, and Furious!

The story of Ender's battle games make you forget that you have to use the bathroom.
Infact, it may even make you forget about the excremental solid/liquid in your body.

However, there is no denying that Peter brought the mood down and made us sad by the killing talk... Just Joking!!!!

Peter made the story exciting!! Val, and Peter's exciting takeover of the world as Locke and Demonsthesis was fun to watch, really.

Please write a comment on me for me.. Or just read everything :)

The climaX ---

The climax is the turning point.
Where things cahnge rapidly,
and where it is most suspensful.

Most of you would agree with me that the climax is the finding that it wasn't a game.

If.. I said that was the climax.

I think that the climax is when Ender finds the giant's hill in Buggerlands

The buggers understood Ender the best out of all humans

In the giant's hill Ender finds a Hive Queen Cocoon. Ender hids her, and keeps her safe.

It is the climax, because it is a greater turning point. It tells us that a specie that is supposed to be extinct and the extiction was all the story was about. Then it tells us they are alive.

What a turing point? Eh?

◈◈◈Understanding = Loving♡♡♡

This is the Entry of my personal choice. Why did Ender Wiggin love the Buggers?

Ender Wiggin was the single person in all humanity, possibliy excluding his teacher, that knew the Buggers best. Through studying Mazor's Videos, and through his so called simulation games, he got to know some about these creatures called the Buggers. Ender wanted to know more about them. And as he learned more and more about the Buggers, and understood more and more about them, he came to love them just for who they are.

Here is my conclusion --- One will most surely fall in love (maybe not in a romantic way:])with the other if one truely understands them, no matter what.

Now try thinking of someone you know. Someone you don't really know about except for their gender and presence.

Now think about someone you know well, your Best Friend or your family.

Now think: if you have known some one well as the one you know well and love, would you have loved that person? Would you have loved the first person if you truely understood that person, even better than that person himself/herself?

Yes you would have loved that person.

So living things are beautiful, and if you really get to know them, you're gonna love them.

The Main Characters in the novel.

The three main characters are obvious. The Wiggins.
Locke/Hegemon - Peter Wiggin
Demonsthesis - Valentine Wiggin
Speaker for the Dead/Ender - Andrew Wiggin

I like Valentine. I mean, who wouldn't? She is such a loving person that you want to love her as much as you think she'll love you. She, like her brothers, are inhumanly intelligent and rational.
Somehow, I came to have a positive feeling toward Peter. He is cruel, and is the model of all evil, yes. However, he is just to smart to not be awed by. Also, I like him for askin the Speaker for the Dead to write about himself through the ansible. As for Ender, I do like him too, but not a whole lot. I admire him, yes, for his personality and brains, but I'm not sure I like him too much.
I think that the three siblings represent Good, Normal(Vulnerable?), and Bad.

The Theme -- Unconditoinal Love

I think that the central theme of the story is Unconditional Love.


I think so because of the two holy writs of the Speaker:


The Hive Queen and the Hegomon.



Ender wrote as the Speaker of the Dead for the Buggers, or the Hive Queen,

because Ender really understood and loved the Buggers.

Can you tell me why Ender would love the Buggers? Because of remoarse? or Guilt? I think not.



Ender also wrote for Peter, his brother. Peter was the one who wanted to kill Ender.
He was the one who never loved Ender. He was the one who only tried to use Ender.

Ender wrote for Peter as the Speaker.

Such love... unconditional!

Also, there is the fact that Valentine's character could just be described by love.
Unconditional love.

So why don't we start loving each other like these ten, eleven year olds?

The one passage that frightened me---

This is Peter Wiggin speaking.

"Oh, I know. But there'll come a day when you aren't there with him, when you forget. And suddenly you'll remember, and you'll rush to him, and there he'll be, perfectly all right. And the next time you won't worry somuch, and you won't come so fast. And every time, he'll be all right. And you'll think that I forgot. Even though you'll remember that I said this, you'll think that I forgot. And years will pass. And then there'll be a terrible accident, and I'll find his body, and I'll cry and cry over him, and you'll remember this conversation, Vally, but you'll be ashamed of yourself for remembering, because you'll know that I changed, that it really was an accident, that it's cruel of you even to remember what I said in a childhood quarrel, Except that it'll be true. I'm gonna save this up, and he's gonna die, and you won't do a thing, not a thing. But you go on believing that I'm just the biggest."

I wouldn't be surprised if no one of Peter's age could have said such amount of speach without stopping to think what to say. However, for the wiggins are well beyond typical human boundaries, I'm not surprised by his english skills. what I am taken aback for is what he said. All he said is really frightening. How he said he will kill his brother and cover it as a accident is scary enough, but Peter says that Valentine will remember this conversation, this plan to kill Ender, but that Valentine will be ashamed that she remembers, for she will think by how Peter acts from this day on that he is a different person. Why does Peter hate Ender so much, that he is willing to stage every minute of his life to kill his own brother? Well, sure, the younger third had proven more useful to the adults, and they think Ender is better. But is that enough motive for Peter to do the things he plans to do? Surely he is sincere, or maybe is he just joking? Joking or not, all this is also horridly mean toward Valentine. Valentine loves Ender so much, that if he dies because of her, she won't be able to endure it. She even loves Peter, and even if this is a joke she will be bothered by this for a long period of time. What really frightens me is that Peter said all this is a joke, and that he loves Ender as a brother after he said this. But how could Ender or Valentine believe it? How can they be sure that this isn't the beginning of Peter's acting? How can they know that he just started to take what he said into action? I am sure that some part of them actually wants to believe that Peter just loves Ender, but they won't be able to. That's why it will hurt Valentine. She won't be able to love Peter as much as she wants to and she will be hurt by that. Also for Ender, now he and his brother won't be able to love each other, as Ender wants.
