Have you read First Meeting in the Enderverse or War of Gifts?

The Alvin Maker series is good. The first book is Seventh Son.
If you want more from the Enderverse you could get the short stories from IGMS.

I think the book I read next was The Worthing Saga. Some of the characters in it are quite similar to Enderverse ones so it's easy to get into.

If you're just looking for something to tie you up for a few weeks and if it has to be Mr. Card's works, I would say Empire or Pastwatch. Both lead into very interesting research once you're done with the books.

I liked going through the Alvin Maker series after the Enderverse stories. I concur with Xann read all of the short stories on IGMS and War of GIfts and FIrst Meetings. I really like reading series but stand alones are fun too.

I actually found the book 'Homebody' to be a very good one... I read that after the Speaker/Shadow books and I found the new style quite interesting, its the same author you can tell but his tones are so different, it just goes to show what a really good author can do with words! I recommend that one...
