I have already read Ender's Game and I really enjoyed it, but there are so many books in this saga. In which order should I read them?

1. Ender's game - This is the pivot novel, a must read before any other from enderverse.

Then there are many subseries, read any of them in one go.

These are,

1st option
1. Speaker for the dead
2.Xenocide
3.Children of the mind

2nd option
1.Ender's shadow
2.Shadow of the Hegemon
3.Shadow puppets
4.Shadow of the giant
5.Shadows in Flight

3rd option
1.Earth Unaware
2.Earth Awakens
3.Earth Afire

Although personally, the 2nd option would be the best continuation of the story.

But definitely, 1st option is a must read as a long-term after-effect of Ender's game.

3rd option is a prequel to the story, which is a good option even before Ender's game.

Other books (like Ender in Exile) could be read in between the subseries.
