Any great books with battle of wits/cat and mouse chase between two genius rivals?

Idk any
But, if want a good sci-fi story , I recommend Enders game series

Read -The Matarese Circle- by Robert Ludlum.

Enders game, huh? Sounds interesting! Then again, I haven't read any sci-fi books.

The book about two rivals going against each other but have to become allies to defeat the Matarese, right? Looks interesting.
I didn’t either until I read it, you might not like the first one but it gets a lot more interesting after

... That's a self help book, not a novel. You got any novels with battle of wits/cat and mouse theme to it?
Did you read Enders game yet?
