I couldn't stand it. I dutifully read the first twenty pages; and then the next twenty pages; and then somehow I had reread the whole book! I think the ...
Is everyone always logical or likeable? To me the back and forth between Bet and Foster was amazing - they had lived the same years but on such different roads...

I think that Bet becomes more real as the book progresses. I found Fitch and NG harder to believe in at first; but every character, from Captain Wolfe down, ...

OK, I've finished it (having not gotten beyond about p 100 on an initial try several years ago) and I really liked it. In addition to the well-done treatment...
See also previous message. Specifically, what is one supposed to think about Who Did It? For a few hundred pages there, I was reluctantly thinking that Jordan...
... Ah, this is a question that keeps coming back. CJC has done a wonderful balancing act. Was it accident? Was it murder? Suicide? Whichever, the whole...
... Standard answers in order: In the end, it doesn't really matter. It was an accident (what I leaned to). Shit happens. Seely did it. Or was that Abban?...
Cherryh has also said that she had a sequel she could write, if someone was willing to pony up the money. So maybe she's saving something for that! ... Jo...
I coincidentally just started re-reading my Cherryh collection and saved Cyteen for last (I like reading them in chronological order). I find the book filled...
... Alas, I don't think Cherryh will ever self-publish. Otherwise I would have started a fund for the next Mallory novel a long time ago! :-) The thing is that...

Back to the Rimrunners discussion! Cherryh's SF characters fall loosely into three groups: spacers, stationers, and planetsiders. Birthplace plays a big role...
Cherryh makes clear in several books that in-systemers like skimmer crews are a transitional social group but more stationer than spacer. You can see this in...
