Reviews
Praise for the Foreigner series: "C.J. Cherryh's splendid Foreigner series remains at the top of my must-keep-up reading list after two decades." -- Locus "This is the kind of anthropological SF of which [Cherryh] is an acknowledged master. " -- Booklist " A seriously probing, thoughtful, intelligent piece of work , with more insight in half a dozen pages than most authors manage in half a thousand." -- Kirkus Reviews "One of the best long-running SF series in existence...Cherryh remains one of the most talented writers in the field ." -- Publishers Weekly "This is one of the best science fiction series currently running ....by this point, the series has turned into a complicated set of thrillers involving political and factional turmoil, as well as a close and detailed examination of the troubled interactions between human and alien cultures." --Strange Horizons "Cherryh plays her strongest suit in this exploration of human/alien contact, producing an incisive study-in-contrast of what it means to be human in a world where trust is nonexistent." -- Library Journal "A large new novel from C.J. Cherryh is always welcome. When it marks her return to the anthropological SF in which she has made such a name, it is a double pleasure. The ensuing story is not short on action, but stronger (like much of Cherryh's work) on world-building, exotic aliens, and characterization. Well up to Cherryh's usual high standard. " -- The Chicago Sun-Times "[Cherryh] avoids any kind of slump with a quick-moving and immediately engaging plotline , and by balancing satisfying resolutions with plenty of promises and ominous portents that are sure to keep readers' appetites whetted." -- RT Reviews "These are thinking man's reads with rich characters and worlds and fascinating interactions that stretch out over many generations." --SFFWorld "Cherryh's forte is her handling of cross-cultural conflicts , which she does by tying her narrative to those things her point-of-view character would know, think, and feel."--SFRevu , " Complex and sophisticated ...those who persevere will be rewarded with a space opera where ideas are as important as action...fans will be delighted." - Publishers Weekly "Her lucid storytelling conveys enough backstory to guide newcomers without boring longtime series followers. The characters are well drawn, and Cherryh's depiction of both human and alien cultures is riveting ." - Library Journal "The latest Foreigner science fiction thriller is a superb entry in a strong chronicle ...once again C.J. Cherryh provides an interesting tale of a human living in an alien culture; however, the additional spin of the impact on an atevi youth having lived in a human culture for a couple of years refreshes the saga." - Midwest Book Review

Synopsis
The tenth novel in Cherryh's Foreigner space opera series, a groundbreaking tale of first contact and its consequences... The civil war among the alien atevi has ended. Tabini-aiji, powerful ruler of the Western Association, along with Cajieri, his son and heir, and his human paidhi , Bren Cameron, have returned to the Bujavid, their seat of power. But factions that remain loyal to the opposition are still present, and the danger these rebels pose is far from over. Since the rebellion, Bren Cameron's apartment in the capital has been occupied by an old noble family from the Southern district--the same district from which the coup was initiated. This family now claims loyalty to Tabini, but the aiji is dubious. To avoid additional conflict, Bren has decided to visit Najida, his country estate on the west coast. Tabini-aiji has once again take over the job of training his young son in the traditional ways of the atevi , and has Cajieri under strict supervision. But after two years in space, surrounded by human children, Cajieri bristles in this highly controlled and boring environment. Desperate for freedom and adventure, Cajieri escapes the tightly guarded Bujavid with his young bodyguards and sets out secretly to join Bren on the coast. Determined to ensure his son's safety, Tabini recalls Ilisidi from her home in the East, asking her to find Cajieri and secure him at Bren's estate. But it has been a long time since Bren has been to Najida, and the war has shifted allegiances in many quarters. A district that once was considered a safe haven might now be a trap. And with Bren, Cajieri, and Ilisidi all under one roof and separated from their allies, that trap is now baited.

- r***h (109)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaReally happy with this purchase. Both items are in excellent new condition, as described. The packaging was very well done. They were in a nice compact box that fit the books just right and an inner waterproof wrap which i greatly appreciated because we have had a lot of rain lately & unfortunately our mailbox flops open. It was nice to have dry books! Packing slip included. Based on this transaction, i definitely recommend this conscientious seller.
