To all thinking of reading Ender's Game, do not expect some epic storytelling with the grandness of Asimov, Herbert or Tolkien, or the depth of a Greg Bear or Gibson, or intrigue of an Iain S. Banks or George R. R. Martin, or fortelling of an Arthur C. Clarke or Heinlein, etc. The maturity, scope and content of the writing in Ender's Game's pales in comparison to many childrens books, modern or otherwise, including J.K. Rowling's. As someone else in this thread posted, it will feel like reading a (barely) sci-fi version of Twilight, aimed at a pre-teen audience, and you may question why some opine the book's greatness. You may have a point...
