Who are the main characters in the novel? Do you like them? Why or why not? What is special about them? What do thy reveal about the universal human

The main characters in the novel are Ender which is a child that goes off to battle school and is seen as the only hope of the Future. Valentine is the sister of Ender and is a kind loving person when she starts writing articles on the net which turns her into more of a ‘Peter”. Peter is the brother of Ender and is known a cruel mean persons threatening to kill people and thinking of ways to murder poor innocent animals in the woods. Valentine is my favorite character in the book I like her because she is kind and loving but also because she is also has a “meaner” side to her which comes in her writing on the internet, the most interesting part about her is she can find people weaknesses and use them effectively against them. Peter is typical trouble maker hell bent on controlling people by fear because he enjoys seeing people bow before him. I do not necessarily like him but I do understand him it is sometimes fun to control people with fear and seem them do everything you want you get a sense of satisfaction when you do it but then feel guilty later on. The main character Ender is my least favorite. Most of the book I am saying get a grip of yourself Ender. He is always killing people left and right kicking them to death. He also seems to get everyone one his enemy side but still has some friends on his side. In battle school he angers the other teems by beating them over and over again until the teachers decide to make his life a living hell.
