Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card - Why I Was Interested in Picking it up

This week I have gone for a change. This will be my first post about a book that is not a Doctor Who book. (I know! Exciting, right?) Oh, by the way I have not progressed in Doctor Who: Scales of Injustice at all. This week I have begun to read the book Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card. And let me tell you, it is amazing. I can hardly put it down, and it has nearly reduced me to tears. For those of you who don't know, as I didn't, this is the second book in the Ender's Game series. Now, for why I started to read it.

Well, this weekend I was watching Ender's Game the movie at my house. I had read the book and loved it so I figured the movie couldn't be that bad. I was right. It was a great movie, although if you had not read the book it might have been a bit confusing. In fact, I enjoyed the movie so much that I decided to see if there was a second book after Ender's Game. I was absolutely delighted to discover that there are actually over ten books after Ender's Game. I was hoping that the second book would continue Ender's story in the same captivating way that the first boook did, and I was not dissapointed. I only got it a few days ago, and I am already over half way through the book. If you are looking for something to read, then I highly reccomend the Ender's Game series. So go and buy it! It is worth the money.

  1. It's about time you broke away from all the Dr.Who nonsense. Obsessing over the same series can deplete and exhaust the fun of it entireley.
