E G Entry 3

^^Who are the main characters in the novel? do you like them? why or why not? what is special about them? what do they reveal about the universal human experience?

There are many charcters in Enders game. Valentine, Peter Alai, Graff and others.

Graff: He is a teacher/captain of the battle school. He was the one who brought Ender to the school. He planned and made Ender to become the war hero in the battle against the buggers. His attitude toward Ender was cold and mean, but I like him because it was part of his job of making Ender a war hero.
Alia: He is leader of Ender's group and he develops deep and good relationship with Ender.Alai comes to appreciate Ender's many talents. In Salamander Army, Alai reveals his true friendship by whispering "Salaam." I like Alia because he was of the reasons that Ender could fit in with others.
Peter: Ender's older brother. He is cruel and he was much as hero as Ender, but he could not attend Battle school; instead he became a hero in Earth. I personally don't like him because I don't like his personality, how he is aggressive and brutal.
Valentine: She is second child, she favors peace and she is nice. She has role to protect Ender in the story. Ender loves Valentine. I personally like Valentine, because readers can sense that she is beautiful and kind girl by the descriptions of her in the book.
