"Armor" is poorly written. Characters come and go, people do things for no apparent reason, you cannot bring yourself to give a hoot about...whatever the main character's name is.I read through the first part, which is sufficiently action-filled to cover up the shortcomings of the writing, then lost interest and moved on to something else.Read "Ender's Game." It's vastly better--it even stacks up well against non-sci-fi books.
