Why is this book held in such high regard?

>>	Anonymous Thu Jan 6 19:59:44 2011 No.1430772 It has literally the WORST scene descriptions of any book ever. I mean, I can understand "leaving things to the imagination" but the author never even tells you what the ships that were in the final battle looked like!
