#0018K: Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card


I'm just going to put this picture up again and not say too much since Alyse just covered this novel. I thought it was interesting to read this in sequence with Ender's game. Ender is still a main character, but it takes place 3,000 later. Through the wonder of space/time travel, Ender is only 35 years old at this point. That's over 20 years worth of character development missing. I appreciate the continuity, though. Ender chaged a lot, but it wasn't outside of the realm of his personality. I was able to fill in the gaps and draw my own conclusions, which probably added to my relationship with this novel. 3.5 stars, I think, is my final verdict.
