Oh man, a summary? Hmm, well, amazingly brilliant kid ender goes off to battle school, at 6 yrs old, while jealous brother and loving sister stay at home. Ender does exceedingly well at battle school, but is manipulated by teachers, who see him as a tool to defeat the enemy. He manages to rise up through the ranks and beat impossible odds. Back home, sister and brother try to take over the world via internet forums. Sister only helps because she is scared of the megalomaniac brother. Ender eventually gets out of battle school, sees his sister once, then goes to the military headquarters for tactics training. He finds all his friends from battle school are also there, and the hero from the last invasion becomes his teacher. They go through a whole bunch of battle simulations, winning every one, and...well, i'll stop there.

I just finished the second book, Speaker for the Dead, a few days ago, and it is also amazingly awesome. Just started the third this morning. I've heard from my classmates that the parallel story, Ender's Shadow, is also very good.

They're all written by Orson Scott Card, FYI

READ IT I SAY!!! Laughing
It is a very good book, but I hated the sequel (Speaker for the Dead). There is also a book called Ender's Shadow, which is the same as Ender's Game, but from a different characters point of view.
