	Speaker for the Dead -- 1593974760 (Audio Renaissance.com)
		Imagine how different our world could be if we had Speakers for the Dead to share the true, unadulterated story of our lives - someone who would not glorify the dead, but simply remember their essence and encapsulate that essence in words that educated and moved and inspired others.
		Andrew Wiggin, Speaker of the Dead, sets off for Lusitania where he hopes to repair the lives of two of families on Lusitania and solve the mystery of the piggies.
		The very idea of a Speaker for the Dead is incredibly moving and to have Ender, the slayer of the buggers, fill this role proves even more powerful.

	Amazon.ca: Speaker For The Dead: Books: Orson Scott Card (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
		Speaker For The Dead is meant to be a standalone book, which means you do not have to have read Ender's Game to understand what goes on in the book.
		However, Speaker For The Dead is a sequel in the sense that some of the background is needed from Ender's Game or Ender's Shadow to get fully what the book is talking about when it refers to Ender the Xenocide and Peter the Hegemon, and so forth.
		In Speaker for the Dead, a new alien race is discovered on a small colony on the planet Lusitania.

	Books For Dummies - Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
		And while Speaker is the perfect sequel to that story - how Ender deals with the realization that the Buggers weren't his enemy - it has to be told in a much different fashion.
		Due to his constant travel across the galaxy serving as a speaker for the dead, traveling at great distances that in reality take several years, but for him only a matter of days, it's now 3,000 years since the Bugger Wars and Ender is no longer a real member of human society.
		This is the story of how Ender becomes a human being again, after the years of isolation at the battle school, and now after his own self-imposed exile, traveling through the stars too often to become a part of any human community.

	Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card - Book
		The book Speaker for the Dead is one of the most outstanding and exciting books I have ever read and I encourage anyone who enjoys a book that makes them think to read it.
		However Speaker for the Dead is written on a much higher level and takes much more time to read than Ender’s Game.
		The "Speaker for the Dead", was a remarkable book that took my mind not quite as far as I thought "Ender's Game" did, but to a certain degree it took me just as far.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: Speaker for the Dead / Orson Scott Card
		Inspired by Ender's book, speakers are now everywhere amongst the worlds governed by the Starways Congress.
		What's more, Novinha is deeply hostile to him, since she cancelled her request for a speaker after Ender set off on his voyage, and has only grown more bitter in the passing years.
		Speaker for the Dead, on the other hand, focuses on characters whom fate, it seems, has long since dealt with, and dealt with harshly.

	Reading Orbit, OCSFC Book Club: Ender’s Game and Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card
		This is what it means to be a speaker for the dead: the speaker speaks the subject’s life; a life not known by those who believe they knew the subject in life.
		Both of these functions, I would maintain, serve to extend the definition of “human”: in telling the story, the history, of another I recognize this other as a subject like myself; in speaking for them after their death I tell the unknown truth—something, again, which can only be done about “an-other” subject.
		Already at the beginning of Speaker For the Dead we have a questioning of the division between human and alien.

	Speaker for the Dead Novel Review (no spoilers) [Archive] - SpaceBattles.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
		Although Speaker is definitely a sequel in both context and content, the story is set some three thousand years after the events in Ender’s Game.
		He continues his search for redemption as the speaker for the dead, hoping to find a home for the repopulation of the buggers; a race which suffered genocide at his own hands.
		Although a much slower and thoughtful story, Speaker for the Dead is undeniably brilliant.

	Speaker for the Dead - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This book 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 35 years old.
		Speakers for the Dead are the wandering representatives of a Humanist movement (not a religion, though they are treated with the respect accorded a priest or cleric); they research the dead person's life and give a speech that attempts to speak for them, describing the person's life as he or she tried to live it.
		The Speaker explains how Novinha blames herself for Pipo's death, and underwent a life of suffering and deception--marrying Marcão so that they could both avoid the stigma of singlehood in a Catholic colony, but secretly trysting with Libo--because their love for each other never truly died.

		Here he is having to live with his own guilt and the positive and negative aspects of his own legend.
		He has inspired a cult of sorts, the Speakers of the Dead, people who speak not well of the dead, but realistically.
		As Speaker for the Dead, it is our hero Ender's lifelong task to understand people and tell the truth about them -- a truth that will reveal their good, bad, and ugly, but most importantly, their inherent worth and um, goodness.

		What separates Baranick from colleagues on the death beat is her ability to unearth the kinds of idiosyncratic details that bring characters to life, says Chris Quinn, her editor at The PD for three years.
		Sometimes, perhaps out of reluctance to speak ill of the dead, families don't offer the full story.
		She once wrote about an elderly woman who had enjoyed several marriages before she died.

		Mystery, horror, reality, love, hate, and deception are intricately woven into this passionate story of a broken family, a mysterious alien species, an impossibly empty and limited planet, a devastating disease, and the Speaker for the Dead, who's brilliant mind and healing hands are perhaps no match for the troubles that plague this planet.
		It is somehow the key to understanding what has plagued Novinhia so that she has become cold and uncaring, selfish and unhappy.
		He must solve the puzzle, speak the death of Marcos, and expose the secrets that poison Novinhia's family.

	Mio Pocket PC - Built-in speaker seems dead!
		For once i have managed not to drop it so far, unlike many other of my electronic devices (how my hard disk based mp3 player lasted as long as it did i'll never know).
		Despite this the built-in speaker seems to have stopped working (i can still get sound using the headphone socket).
		It seems it could be a loose connection as since posting my message above twice the speaker has worked for about 0.5 sec each time.

		Author's Notes: In between the self-explanatory title, the fact that it's John-centric, and the fact that it has spoilers for 2x01, I don't think I have to go into huge detail about what the gist of this fic is about.
		Basically, John dies, goes to heaven, and meets five people who were connected to his life in some way (and who are incidentally already dead as well).
		For the record, this episode was SPOT-ON when they said there was no one consensus method of getting rid of zombies in the literature.

	Book Reviews: Speaker for the Dead,etc.
		In Speaker for the Dead Card continues the tale of Ender Wiggin, and the story that he builds is deeper and more meaningful than many that I’ve read.
		So, my words of advice, go to your nearest book store and buy Ender’s Game and Speaker for the Dead: you will not be disappointed.
		However, I admitted that Card was a master author in my review of Speaker and this work, Seventh Son, a fantasy set in an America that never was.
