Speaker for the Dead, by Orson Scott Card

This book is a must-read. It is the sequel to Ender’s Game (which you must read first!) and continues the story of Ender, 3000 years after the first novel ends.

Speaker is somewhat more of a difficult read than the first book, due to Card’s use of ethnic Portuguese names — and to his use of nicknames in place of all these unpronounceable strings of random letters. The book even has a pronounciation guide in the front, which I encourage you to ignore unless you’re a linguist.

This book, like Ender’s Game, won both the Hugo and Nebula awards.
