End of Ender's Game
After finishing Ender's Game, there are many comments I would like to make. First off, Ender's Game was an amazing book with exciting twists at the end. When I learned that Ender had been killing off the bugger population without knowing it, I thought that that was very unfair and cruel. Then I realized why the I.F. had tricked Ender into killing the buggers. They knew that despite his similarities to Peter, Ender would have never been able to kill an entire population. He was not that cruel. This was what made Mazer's trickery the worst. Ender was very distraught when he learned what he had done. Another fascinating twist at the end of Ender's game is when Ender finds the pupa of a queen bugger. Ender must have been even angrier when the queen tells him that the buggers didn't want to murder the humans. I think Ender would have realized that he killed an innocent civilization. This must have spurred him to help bring back the bugger population. I found the last sentence in the book interesting and it accurately described the human race. At the end of the book, Ender was looking for a place where the bugger population could grow in peace and without being killed by humans.The sentence in the book is, "He looked for a long time." (324). To me, this shows that Ender had a hard time finding any place where humans would not kill the buggers, even if they knew that the buggers just wanted to live in peace. Overall, Ender's Game was a great book worth rereading because of its complex lessons and surprises.
