If you are all out of CJ Cherryh Stories,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Book of Shai (Paperback)
Every other year or so I read the complete catalogue of CJ Cherryh, I guess that makes me an addict. Having run out of books before I ran out of craving I found the Book of Shai. Although Ms. Cherryh is the translator not the author, her unique style of writing shines through making this if not a great story, at least a good one. The Book of Shai begins the adventures of a young man named Shai and his companions in a future where the Earths axis has tilted and the world we know has been basically destroyed. This is a smallish novela, though not as quick a read as the size might indicate, as you have to pay close attention to follow the jumps in the story.If unlike me you haven't already read everything else with CJ Cherryh's name on it, try one of her other stories, (Just be sure to start at the beginning of a series as her character development is always way to good to miss.)Down Below Station is as good a place as any to start as it can be seen as the introduction to the "Merchanter Universe". But if like me you just have to have more, this is a good story that you will probably enjoy. |
