Re: Ender: too much of a good thing?

Firstly, I must state that I hate Sci Fi. Yes the odd film has entertained me, though this is mainly due to special effects and glitz. I hate the connection between fantasy and sci fi. Why? Why do we have to rub shoulders with those number loving space creeps? If I picked up my weapons of choice, an axe and hammer, and went toe to toe with some of you space marines/wolves with your mini guns then I know who would win. Nine times out of ten I would send you to an early grave! We don't mix. The genres are polarised. Granted we are all dreamy nerds, who have simply wandered down different paths, but still... Ender Rant. You people obviously have read Ender's Game and so I will turn to you with my questions. Is it the best science fiction book out there? I've read reviews and the odd synopsis and it sounds pretty interesting. Is it worth crossing the aisle in Waterstones for? Is it anything like Soldier starring Kurt Russell? Sorry I just love dropping the title of the odd B flick when I get the opportunity. I did enjoy Soldier, sans glitz and special effects, and would recommend it to you Sci Fi losers. Harmless pokery, I promise you.
