But Dink Meeker, one of the older students, doesn't see it that way. He thinks that giving gifts isn't exactly a religious observation, and on Sinterklaas Day he tucks a present into another student's shoe.This small act of rebellion sets off a battle royal between the students and the staff, but some surprising alliances form when Ender comes up against a new student, Zeck Morgan. The War over Santa Claus will force everyone to make a choice.THE ENDER UNIVERSEEnder seriesEnder’s Game/Speaker for the Dead/Xenocide/Children of the Mind/ Ender in Exile/Children of the FleetEnder’s Shadow seriesEnder’s Shadow/Shadow of the Hegemon/Shadow Puppets/Shadow of the Giant/Shadows in FlightThe First Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)Earth Unaware/Earth Afire/Earth AwakensThe Second Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)The Swarm/The HiveEnder novellasA War of Gifts/First Meetings Show more
