It's really just the story of a family with problems. The big reveal about the aliens was obvious to me from the start, and Ender's genius often seems to revolve around pointing out things that other people really should have noticed ages ago, but for all that it is a decent story and the characters feel real.
Thanks for that. I've only ever read Ender's Game and I recently bought Speaker for the Dead in case I could tempt myself with reading it.
