  <default_description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;Beyond Enders&lt;/i&gt; Boxed Mass Market Set&lt;br&gt;Contains: &lt;i&gt;Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide &lt;/i&gt;and&lt;i&gt; Children of the Mind&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Speaker for the Dead&lt;/i&gt;:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the aftermath of his terrible war, Ender Wiggin disappeared, and a powerful voice arose: The Speaker for the Dead, who told the true story of the Bugger War.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now, long years later, a second alien race has been discovered, but again the aliens' ways are strange and frightening...again, humans die. And it is only the Speaker for the Dead, who is also Ender Wiggin the Xenocide, who has the courage to confront the mystery...and the truth.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Xenocide&lt;/i&gt;:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;The war for survival of the planet Lusitania will be fought in the hearts of a child named Gloriously Bright.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;On Lusitania, Ender found a world where humans and pequininos and the Hive Queen could all live together; where three very different intelligent species could find common ground at last. Or so he thought.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Lusitania also harbors the descolada, a virus that kills all humans it infects, but which the pequininos require in order to become adults. The Startways Congress so fears the effects of the descolada, should it escape from Lusitania, that they have ordered eh destruction of the entire planet, and all who live there. The Fleet is on its way, a second xenocide seems inevitble.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Children of the Mind:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;The planet Lusitania is home to three sentient species: the Pequeninos; a large colony of humans; and the Hive Queen, brought there by Ender. But once against the human race has grown fearful; the Starways Congress has gathered a fleet to destroy Lusitania.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jane, the evolved computer intelligence, can save the three sentient races of Lusitania. She has learned how to move ships outside the universe, and then instantly back to a different world, abolishing the light-speed limit. But it takes all the processing power available to her, and the Starways Congress is shutting down the Net, world by world.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Soon Jane will not be able to move the ships. Ender's children must save her if they are to save themselves.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</default_description>

He has a very interesting way of exploring religion and science in a way that really makes you think.

    <body><![CDATA[The three sequels to Ender's Game are nothing like Ender's Game.  They were okay I guess, but were more philosophical than they were about war.  I was kind of bored, but I finished them because once I start a series I have to finish it.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Great series of sci-fi books.  <br/><br/>Two parallel story lines.  4 books in each.  My personal preference is down the Ender's Shadow line.  <br/><br/>The books down the Ender's Saga line get a little bit weird after Book 1, but still worth it.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[These were not quite as good as Enders Game, only because it was one of the best books ever.  I always hate when a character has to change or grow up because you get so used to them the way they are, but they were all great books.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The first of the series is really the best. Probably just stick to Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow. The rest of the series is an intriging enough to get through the thick books but it get weird really quick.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I really dug this whole Speaker series and wrapping up with Children of the Mind definitely did not disappoint.  I don't know why I can only find it in this three pack thing, but the whole thing is good.]]></body>
