Downbelow Station door C. J. Cherryh

My first introduction to Cj Cherryh and I think I like it. The good bits were very good indeed, though there are vast swathes of things where I am not sure whether all will be revealed in another book or that's all there is. Worth a read.

The Pride of Chanur (Alliance-Union: Chanur, Book 1) door C. J. Cherryh

Nice adventure space opera tale, told from the point of view of a Hani trader who makes first contact with a new, unknown species: a human being. Or second contact, because the human being has just escaped from the claws of the bellicose Kif, who want him for their own nefarious purposes.

A lot of intrigue, persecutions and a single space battle follows, as the appearance of a new species challenge the fragile equilibrium of a trading agreement between several different alien species.

The most interesting thing about it, apart from the appealing story, is the way Cherryh immerses us in alien cultures and ways of thinking. I'm giving it 4 instead of 5 stars because the writing always seemed a bit strange, probably on purpose because the story is told from an alien's point of view, but that certain clumsiness of the story flow prevented me from enjoying it unreservedly.… (meer)

Cw: sexual assault

Narratively simple, psychologically complex story of found family. Super lived-in setting, really builds up some great momentum throughout.
