Xenocide By Orson Scott Card
Feb 10, 2024 
Xenocide by Orson Scott Card, is the third book in the Ender’s Game series. Set in a richly imagined science fiction universe, this novel explores complex themes and ethical dilemmas. The story unfolds on two planets: Lusitania and Path. Lusitania is inhabited by humans, the Pequeninos (also known as “Little Ones”), and the last surviving hive queen of the Formics (aliens).
Path is a colony world where genetically modified, superintelligent humans live with a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Xenocide explores ethics, morality, and defining intelligent life. It raises questions about the act of killing populations of aliens (comparable to genocide) and the complexities of interplanetary relations. Orson Scott Card’s masterful storytelling invites readers to ponder the boundaries of compassion, survival, and the search for meaning in a vast and interconnected universe.
