This sounds like a fanfic?? Does it read like one?

It definitely read like fan fiction. Kind of a bit sloppy. It jammed in Ender and kind of built him up into something that Ender's Game didn't go so far in doing. Unless you are just really, really, really into Ender's Game and battleschool geniuses, skip this one.(less)

Unusual abilities are freqently looked upon as coming from Satan and not G-d in True Trumpian fashion. Satan can wear a lovely face so it does matter how good it seems or how long it lasts. The other guy is always wrong and you are right.
He is tested and taken to Battle School despite family objection. We follow him up to the ship where we have been many times with Dink and Ender and Bean and and are with Zeck as he willfully gets the lowest score ever when he refuses to shoot anyone and has to be sent home. His gift is the object of many wars. Not using may cost the earth. It could cost his soul, if he thinks about it. It costs him his mother and father.(less)
