Definitely a well written sci-fi novel with some depth, though personally I find the idea that a person has no privacy to his or her spouse creepy, yet this is true in the WHOLE settled space and never get challenged in the story. Ender also comes up a bit like a Sue imho.

Really deep book, though the gory scenes weren't bloody enough, but still, it was a great book, really interesting, suspenseful, unexpected, yet predictable, strangely philosophical, and overall epic.

I wasn't sold on this one until about halfway through. It just didn't grab me like Ender's Game does after just 5 pages every time I pick it up. Still, an excellent read, and a more mature, thoughtful, ultimately more interesting read than Ender's Game. We'll see how it stands up to future reads.
