Xenocide

This book was horrible! It feels like 1/2 of the book is spent describing a character with very little contribution to the story. The author describes at length its home world, its daily activities and rituals. And although these aspects does have importance in the book, it was TOO LONG. Another 3/4 of the book is dedicated to Jane, the very uninteresting AI. She's alright as a side character, not as a main one.

The other characters are Ender's children. For absolutely no reason, all but of them exceeded at one field of study. They just felt as little variations of Ender himself. Totally pointless. And the one who didn't exceeded at anything, ended up saving th world. WTF!

To sum it up, much biography, little unbelievable story. The author explains that he was told that the book was sold before it was even written.
