One technique that the author has successfully utilized is the use of third person in the first four chapters in the game. The author has started the first four chapters of enders game with a conversation between the soldiers who a uknown at the start. they have done this so the reader learn about ender better and to help the reader get an insight in to what is happening. The third person omniscent allows the reader to know enders emotions and thoughts throughout the book.
Examples of this technique: chapter 1 - "I have watched through his eyes, listened through his ears, and I tell you he is the one. Or at least as close as we are going to get."
chapter 2 - "All right it's off. how is he doing. you live inside somebodies body for a few years, you get used to it. I look at his face now. I cant tell whats going on. Im not used to seeing his facial expressions. im used to feleing them."
the main reasons that the author has used this technique in the book is so that we can get multiple perspectives on ender and it can occasionally help set the plot.
