Thanks for sending this book to me. I read the first book in the Ender series and loved it. Yes, I'm a kid at heart. Looking forward to following Ender Wiggin on his next adventure.

This was a really good sci-fi. Speaker of the Dead is a Nebula/Hugo award winner and the sequel to Ender's Game. It can, however, stand on its own. In fact, the author mentions that he wrote Ender's Game so that he could launch this storyline which includes Speaker of the Dead, Xenocide and Children of the Mind. While Ender's Game is more simplistic and written as a youth/young adult story, the next three books seem to be written for an older crowd. Speaker for the Dead takes place 3000 years after Andrew "Ender" Wiggen destroys the alien life forms called the Buggers. The story has a new cast of characters with Ender, who is still alive and kickin' (thanks to speed of light travel), as the protagonist. I found this book thought provoking, as it has a philosophical flavor to it.

“No human being, when you understand his desires, is worthless. No one's life is nothing. Even the most evil of men and women, if you understand their hearts, had some generous act that redeems them, at least a little, from their sins.”
― Orson Scott Card, Speaker for the Dead
