Just a few minutes ago i was really bored. So i decided to see what pictures google had of Enders Game. The result was just book covers, but i noticed some of these covers were not of TOR publishing, but of a different one, i think its starship something. Also i have seen book covers that said Enders War, what's up with all of this?
Also, Mr.Card i have seen many different types of covers for The Ender Books, whats also up with that?
Merci!

Starscape is an offshoot of Tor for younger readers. Starscape books are all from the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Both EG and ES have been printed under it. For more info go to this link: http://www.starscape.com

Ender's War is a collection of EG and Speaker for the Dead, in one book. I've never seen that one in a store, I believe it was published some time ago.

As for covers, most books end up having more than one. It depends on the edition, paperback or hardcover, as well as author's editions vs. mass market, and covers are sometimes changed during new printings of the book years later. I hope that answers some of your questions.

Leave the poor man alone. Its not as if we don't harrass him enough with that sort of thing.

Just to expand, I'm pretty sure "Ender's War" was a bookclub-only edition.
