I loved Ender's Game, but Speaker for the Dead was a nice surprise. It's much more complex than the first of the saga and didn't disappoint.

Fantastic book that I will re-read throughout my life, Orson Scott Card did some truly remarkable work imagining the ecology and xenology of not only Lusitania but also the universe of the 100 worlds. Now on to Xenocide!
