In the aftermath of his terrible war, Ender Wiggin disappeared, and a powerful voice arose: the Speaker for the Dead, who told 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—and again, humans must die. And only the Speaker for the Dead, who is also Ender Wiggin the Xenocide, has the courage to confront the mystery. And the truth.
This is the equally compelling sequel to Card's masterful Ender's Game.
