Creative Director ORSON SCOTT CARD Written by JAKE BLACK Pencils & Cover by TIMOTHY GREEN II Zeck Morgan was raised by his minister father to be a pious, God-fearing child, devoted to his church. Unfortunately, when the International Fleet decides Zeck is a candidate for training in Battle School, they tear him from his home and prepare him for war. Zeck refuses to participate in the school's war-games due to his pacifist religious beliefs. When he sees another student celebrating Christmas—seemingly violating Battle School's rules against religious practice—he raises an uproar that may tear Battle School apart. Can even Ender Wiggin calm this furor? Find out in this double-sized adaptation of Orson Scott Card's Ender Universe novella, War of Gifts.
