American novelist and screenwriter, Orson Scott Card is best known for his speculative fiction, particularly the *Ender’s Game* series, which explores military strategy and moral dilemmas through the lens of children’s experiences. His work often blends hard science fiction with philosophical questions about power, ethics, and human nature.
