Half of it. I got bored in the middle.

If you haven't read the books, they are awesome. It's by Orson Scott Card, and I believe it's a trilogy. (Or at least, I've read three books in the series.) Also, there's Ender's Shadow, which I think is sort of like related to Ender's Game too, but I haven't read it yet.

It's a bit hard to explain the timeline of the series, but I'll try.

Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow are concurrent; they're from different characters' perspectives.

Then after that, the Ender's Shadow series (which focuses on Bean) comes next chronological, happening in the years right after Ender's Game/Shadow.

Ender in Exile, the most recently written book, takes place after the Shadow series, ending right before the end of Ender's Game (there's a big time gap by the end of that book and Ender in Exile fills that time gap).

And then you have the rest of the Ender's series (Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind).

XENOCIDE??
