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
My favorite science fiction series is C. J. Cherryh's Foreigner Universe. Cherryh deftly balances alien psychology and human vanities in a character caught between being human and part of an alien race. -Denver Post
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
The Foreigner series is about as good as it gets...so finely and densely wrought that you may end up dreaming of sable-skinned giants with gold eyes, and the silver spun delicacy of interstellar politics. -SF Site
