Re: Which is better: The Hunger Games or Ender's Game?

Well, I haven't read either of the books (Not much of a reader, I like to write my own 'books'.) But I know more about the plot of the Hunger Games, so I'd go with Hunger Games.

Re: Which is better: The Hunger Games or Ender's Game?

I've read both series and here's what I think:

Ender's Game is better than The Hunger Games

But, they're both really good.  If you haven't read them, you should.

Ender's Game.
First, Demosthenes and Locke.  They took over the world from internet forums.  Ender's Game predicted blogs and forums before the internet.

Second, desks.  They're Ipads.  Before such a thing happened.

Third, the battle school.  Laser tag in zero gravity, but when you get hit, you can't move.

Fourth, Ender.  He changes throughout the book, and shows good character development.  not necessarily positive, but certainly interesting traits develop.

Though I haven't read any books in the Hunger Games series, I have heard mostly positive things about it.

Re: Which is better: The Hunger Games or Ender's Game?

It's seriously no contest. Ender's Game.

Plus, how can you can compare Hunger Games and Ender's Game? First, they are completely different. Just because they have kids fighting in "games", doesn't mean they're the same. Second, Ender's Game is much more in-depth and dramatic in scope, while Hunger Games is simply a tale of love and survival. Finally, Ender's Game has a much better plot, but it really kept me interested. The Hunger Games was...eh.

I'm not saying the Hunger Games is a bad book--it certainly isn't--it's just that Ender's Game is just a lot better to me. To this day it remains one of my all-time favorite books, besides The Giver.

Sorry, I'll just do anything to defend Ender's Game. I love it that much.

I've only read Ender's Game, not The Hunger Games.

Re: Which is better: The Hunger Games or Ender's Game?

I'd have to say Ender's Game. But to me, both series go the same way (in how I think the books are). Ender's Game and Hunger games are both the first in a series and to me the best in said series. I read all three books of hunger games but only Ender's Game and Speaker of the dead in the other series. Both Catching Fire and Mockingjay weren't good and Speaker of the dead really isn't good. Pig people who when they mature get turned into trees? Really? It's like riding down a mountain on how good the books are.

Enders game! I read the whole enders game series and i read enders shadow. I'm on shadow of the hegemon right now. No offense to hunger games, they're both amazing.

Re: Which is better: The Hunger Games or Ender's Game?

Ender's Game!!!!

For Hunger Games, since I get an update of every page from Hunger Games fans who I have tennis practice with, I give it an 8/10, in my opinion. It just isn't my type of book, nothing against it.

But Ender's Game was the best!!! I mean, how can you neat a nine year old defeating an alien armada, while thinking that it's a video game?

Re: Which is better: The Hunger Games or Ender's Game?

Instead of reading Speaker of the Dead, you should follow up Ender's Game with Ender's Shadow.  It is a much better followup book.
