I think the climax of Ender’s Game is when Ender defeated the buggers once and for all. Ender was told that it this game was his final examination but in truth, he was fighting the buggers in the Third Invasion. Even though Ender lost many fighters, he destroyed the bugger’s planet, along with all the buggers. He wiped out the whole race of them and saved the human race.
I think this is the climax because it is the most intense, exciting part. When Ender first enters the ‘game’ he finds out that he was outnumbered 1000 to 1. This seems like an impossible task to overcome. There are also people/inspectors watching his every move. At first it seems like if Ender fails this game all of his work before would have been useless. It is an intense part. (Afterwards we found out that if he failed the entire human race would be non existent). Overall, the tone of this part is intense and exciting.
I also think this is the climax because it is the turning point in Ender’s life. Ever since he entered the battle school at the age of 6 Ender had been fighting battles and moving up in the ranks. There was always a next step for Ender, and always a rank/position higher than the one he was in. The battles never seemed to end for Ender. But after this last battle against the bugger’s entire fleet, Ender life at the battle school was over. He had accomplished the task that was chosen for him (to defeat the buggers). This chapter of Ender’s life was over; his life is now changed. That’s another reason why I think this is the climax of Ender’s Game.

Good post Abby :) Yea...and I was confused about the climax but after reading yours I think it makes sense that this is the climax. It's the most exciting and turning point for both Ender and the story. I also think it's the climax because Ender and his teammates thought that this was another game. However, it was the real deal and it was totally unexpecting that they had actually defeated the buggers. And after this battle, Ender could stop fighting for as long as he wanted. That's a big turning point and I also feel happy for him. He finally gets freedom :)
Hi Abby~ I agree with you climax.^^ I also think that this part is a climax because it is the biggest turning point in this story for ender. Like you said, if Ender did something good, his rank will go up. However this part after defeating buggers he was over with all the wars.. no more game. It was really exiting and happy for me to read this part because...I think it's because he don't have to fight in the battle anymore.kk anyway good job:)
Nicee=] I agree with you that this is the climax of this book. It was the last and the most exhilarating battle that Ender fought and also the turning point for Ender. I also think this part is the climax because this was the worst battle of all the ones that Ender fought. He killed murderous numbers of buggers and he turned exactly like Peter eventually of being an atrocious murderer.=[
