This is the first science fiction I read through, and fortunately for me, it's a really interesting one. It is an intense mind game from the beginning, and in a genre of high-tech fantasy, the author tries to locate the inteligence and insigts of human being. The only sci-fi part is the flatness of the characters. As if to assimulate the vastness of the universe - people of similar ages could live into 75 and 25 at the same time simply because they choose to live at different places, Ender's destiny decides that, the six-year old Ender is no different than the 23 year old one. There's no real changes, no growing up, only self-revealing.
I haven't decided whether to pursue the series yet.
