I recommend the book Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card because it was an interesting book, it kept the reader involved, and it is a fast paced book that reminds you of the first book Ender’s Game. If i were to rate this novel out of five, it would be a four and a half because I personally like books that are fast-paced and interesting and I also liked Ender’s Game because I like the Science-Fiction genre, it interests me a lot. In conclusion, Speaker for the Dead was a good book for me and could be for you if you liked Ender’s Game and enjoy
