I know exactly what this thread is about.

I love books like Ender's Game, in fact I enjoy the whole series for their scifi concepts and merits.

Lately, though, it's really hard to find scifi that's not generic Space Marine junk or really silly. The particular problem I have is endings. Lots of authors have great ideas but can't seem to end their books well.

Example: The Accidental Time Machine

It's an amazing "how is he going to get out of THIS" kind of mess that just sort of ends out of the blue with very little satisfaction.

If I can make a scifi recommendation: Version 43 by Philip Palmer. Amazing scifi that is unpredictable, and screws with your head.
