Xenocide, from the ender series. Enders game was good. Speaker was OK I guess. Ender was a whiny bitch the entire time but the descolada mystery was interesting. Now that’s solved and he’s still a whiny bitch and then he just solves basically every single problem with his super ai that can do magical space/time bullshit. The worst deus ex machina I have ever laid eyes on. I physically threw the book across the room at one point. I hate leaving books unfinished, so I slogged through the rest at like 5 pages per sitting, rolling my eyes out of my head the whole time.
Anything with Ender after the first book is terrible. But the series that sticks with the happenings on earth after Enders Game is pretty good. I especially like the book that has Bean from a child through battle school.

I did not finish children of the mind.
I thought ‘Children of the mind’ was good, could have been merged with Xenocide.
Whatever you do, stay away from ‘The Last Shadow’. What a terrible way to finish a series.
Only read Enders shadow and it was decent. Made me realize that ender was a little bitch all along and not when he left.
