Yeah, if he can I would use that over "Coffin Confessor". There is a clear difference in what he is doing verse in the books.

To anyone that doesn't get the reference, the book "Speaker for the Dead" is the next book after Ender's Game and in my opinion is the best book in the series.

Even for those who haven't read any of the series but the first one (eg me), "Speaker for the Dead" is a job/title that the protagonist of Ender's Game takes up at the end of the book.

I did, but this seems different.

This is the dead person speaking on their own behalf. That is telling the truth, both positive and negative, about the dead person.

I thought this was more practical-- the positive parts do already tend to be taken care of by the crowd.
