Meet Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, the unforgettable boy-hero of Ender's Game--winner of the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award for Best Novel--and enter his Universe through this collection of stories."The Polish Boy" is John Paul Wiggin, the future father of Ender. In the years between the first two Bugger Wars, the Hegemony is desperate to recruit brilliant military commanders to repel the alien invasion. They may have found their man--or boy--in John Paul Wiggin.In "Teacher's Pest"-a novella written especially for this collection--a brilliant but arrogant John Paul Wiggin, now a university student, matches wits with an equally brilliant graduate student."The Investment Counselor" is set after the end of the Bugger Wars. Banished from Earth and slandered as a mass murderer, twenty-year-old Andrew Wiggin wanders incognito from planet to planet as a fugitive--until a blackmailing tax inspector compromises his identity and threatens to expose Ender the Xenocide.Also reprinted here is the original award-winning novella, "Ender's Game," which first appeared in 1977.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Gift. Winner of the Hugo and Nebula AwardsFor the perfect holiday gift for the reader on your list, pick up this special gift edition of one of the most beloved Science Fiction novels ever written.Andrew "Ender" Wiggin thinks he is playing computer simulated war games at the Battle School; he is, in fact, engaged in something far more desperate. Ender is the most talented result of Earth's desperate quest to create the military genius that the planet needs in its all-out war with an alien enemy.Is Ender the general Earth needs? The only way to find out is to throw the child into ever harsher training, to chip away and find the diamond inside, or destroy him utterly. Ender Wiggin is six years old when it begins. He will grow up fast.But Ender is not the only result of the experiment. The war with the Formics has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long. Ender's two older siblings, Peter and Valentine, are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways.Between the three of them lie the abilities to remake a world. If, that is, the world survives.Ender's Game is the winner of the 1985 Nebula Award for Best Novel and the 1986 Hugo Award for Best Novel.THE ENDER UNIVERSEEnder seriesEnders Game / Ender in Exile / Speaker for the Dead / Xenocide / Children of the MindEnders Shadow seriesEnders Shadow / Shadow of the Hegemon / Shadow Puppets / Shadow of the Giant / Shadows in FlightChildren of the FleetThe First Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)Earth Unaware / Earth Afire / Earth AwakensThe Second Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)The Swarm /The HiveEnder novellasA War of Gifts /First Meetings.

Condition: Bueno. 359 1993,rústica,esquinas rozadas. 23 cm. 305 p.Cubierta plateada.SINOPSIS: El planeta Armonía fue colonizado por humanos casi 40 millones de años atrás. La colonia ha estado siempre bajo el cuidado de una inteligencia artificial regida por un único objetivo: proteger a los habitantes de Armonía contra los peligros que destruyeron la humanidad en la Tierra y en otros mundos. Pero el mismísimo Alma Suprema, el ordenador que todo lo sabe y todo lo protege, está en peligro. Sus sistemas fallan y, según sus previsiones, dentro de un millar de años la guerra más catastrófica destrozará Armonía, a menos que pueda repararse el ordenador. La única forma de conseguirlo consiste en volver a la Tierra y consultar al Guardián. Para que ello sea posible Alma Suprema debe devolver a los humanos el conocimiento sobre el viaje estelar y, contra su deseo, interferir directamente en la vida de los habitantes de Armonía.Un planeta con una curiosa organización social bajo el gobierno, benévolo y benefactor, de un viejo ordenador central es el punto de partida de la nueva y brillante serie de Orson Scott Card, escrita en clave de space opera."Mi objetivo con la saga del retorno ha sido comprobar si puedo volver a escribir algo que sólo he hecho una vez con El juego de ender: un relato emocionante e inolvidable." Orson Scott Card.

La influencia del Alma Suprema, ha ido menguando con el tiempo y, tras varios alzamientos rebeldes en su contra, la única posibilidad de salvar a los humanos es intentar emprender el regreso a la Tierra. Nafai y su familia son los elegidos para intentar ese viaje, tal vez imposible, que comienza con una penosa travesía por el desierto sin saber aún que se dirigen a la antigua base espacial de Armonía. Allí, abandonadas desde hace millones de años, las viejas naves interestelares aguardan la orden para despegar otra vez con rumbo a la Tierra.
