Three thousand years after Ender’s Game and a completely different kind of book. The war is over, Ender is a travelling funeral speaker who tells the true version of a dead person’s life, and the plot is an anthropological problem about a species nobody understands.

Slower, stranger and more interested in guilt than the first one. The author has said he wrote Ender’s Game mainly to make this possible, and it shows.

Read February 2013, fourteen years after the first.
