Foreigner (2004)
This is my first attempt at Cherryh, and I'm on the fence as to whether or not there will be more. I'm surprised that the reviews of this aren't more tepid.The atevi are interesting: the alien species at the heart of the book, dark-skinned, larger than humans, but more importantly hardwired in a ...

I've since read (with this one) six sequels in that series as well as the first novel in her Chanur series (and have managed to accumulate quite a few...
Intruder (2012)
Intruder is #13 in the Foreigner Series by CJ Cherryh and it is definitely not a series that it is easy to start in the middle (so if you are new to this world, to quote the words of the song "Let's start at the very beginning, it's a very good place to start..")I've been enthralled by the recurr...
