takes place 3,000 years after the events in Ender's Game, although due to relativistic space travel, Ender himself, who now goes by his real name Andrew Wiggin, is only about 20 years older. Whereas the previous novel was hard science fiction with armies and space warfare, "Speaker for the Dead" is more philosophical in nature. It takes place on only the third planet known to have native sentient life, and it involves Ender's interactions with the intelligent lifeforms, called piggies, and the human colonists who live there.

This novel, like Ender's Game, also won the [Hugo award]? and Nebula awards for outstanding science fiction novel. There are two more books in the story of Ender, "Xenocide" and "Children of the Mind."
