Speaker for the Dead

Speaker for the Dead
(I will try to put a link like this above on every book recommendation post; it is linked to the books goodreads.com page)

 

This recommendation is for "Speaker for the Dead" by Orson Scott Card.

This is the second book of his Ender's series. It is a book full of some thought-provoking moments and character-building of Ender. You are introduced to new characters, and you find how Ender is doing after the events of the first book. This is a book I enjoyed a lot. It has a little bit of crude language but not as much as was in Ender's Game. I believe it is not enough to take away from the story. I recommend this book, and the next book in the series just gets better. Below is the summary from goodreads.com.

 

In the aftermath of his terrible war, Ender Wiggin disappeared, and a powerful voice arose: the Speaker for the Dead, who told of the true story of the Bugger War.
 

Now long years later, a second alien race has been discovered, but again the aliens’ ways are strange and frightening…again, humans die. And it is only the Speaker for the Dead, who is also Ender Wiggin the Xenocide, who has the courage to confront the mystery…and the truth.
