In the novel by the famous American science fiction writer “Ender's Game,” earthlings strive to prevent the invasion of “strangers” who threaten to destroy people. The most gifted children are selected for training in the art of war at the Combat School, who will have to carry out the plan developed by the adults. And they cope brilliantly with the task, although their eleven-year-old commander does not suspect that the battles he is fighting are not just toys. In the novel “Herald of the Dead” the reader will again meet the hero of the book “Ender’s Game”. The passing years have made him wise, able to comprehend any person, whether he is good or bad. Once again, people are faced with an alien civilization, but this time, with the help of Ender, intelligent beings managed to understand each other.
