Speaker for the Dead came out second, but I’ve seen several different lists for the best order to read the series.

Ok thanks

People have said that the Ender books split into two series which makes even more confusing

So I think Ill read them in the order I found online unless any of you know of a better order to read them in

Yea someone said that Speaker for the Dead,Ender in Exile,xonicide,and Childeren of the mind are the books that take place after Enders Game

And All the Shadow Books Take Place during Enders Game or something like that

I love Enders Game. There are multiple entwining series.

Enders game- the first one.

Speaker for the dead quartet- set after Enders game, but you don’t have to read them like that.

Shadow series: these focus on Bean and the other Battle School alumni.

Ender in Exile: very detailed look at chapters 14-16, I think, of Enders Game.

First Encounters: three short stories related to Ender.

That’s all of them, I think. The Speaker and Shadow series should be read in order, but you can read either of the series first. Ender in Exile is not really a part of anything, but is very good. I like the shadow series better.
