Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card
4.0
A very solid and exciting follow-up to Ender's Game. While its predecessor was very action focused, Speaker for the dead is more focused on the people, their relationships and how to tackle xenophobia, the non-violent way.
Speaker for the dead does not reach quite the same heights as Enders game, but it is worth your time nonetheless. I believe that many people who did not like the first book might still like this one.
The reason for why Orson Scott Card wrote Ender's Game in the first place, was in order to right this book. What most people see as the original is actually intended to be a prequel, which fleshes out the main character, Andrew 'Ender' Wiggins.
