I prefer some of the philosophical discussions he has in the later books over Ender's Game. I enjoyed the book the first time I read it, but certain major concepts didn't seem to connect. Why would you need a smart human boy to conduct battles when you had that kind of computing power? Why would any military industrial complex as portrayed in the book have issues with using an ultimate weapon? It seemed like a lot of straw man situations.
