We had to read Ender's Game (and Hominids and The Stranger and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time) for my one joke class in college (Law and Literature) because the professor had an autistic child. Wait, I mean that we're all neurotypicals and his son wasn't.
I'm not a real avid Sci-Fi reader, but what I have read is one form of mary sue or another, I just kind of take that as part of the genre. In Dune he falls from his perch of royalty to become king of the indigenous sand people and fulfill no more than three prophecies in the first book. Hominids is all about having a massive cock, super strength, and yet being perfectly peaceful and libertarian (Taurens? Anyone?). I'm just going to guess a ton of sci-fi is like that (also fantasy). |
