Have been waiting for this one

I have been caught up in this saga from the beginning. Yes, you can start anywhere in the line of books, but you feel like you are going home if you start at the beginning. Loved it.

Conspirator: Foreigner # 10

This is a fascinating series and the last one is no exception. I look forward to each new book in the series. One cannot help but be impressed with the ability of the author to keep facts and people in order. The series is so impressive to me since I enjoy scifi or SiFy and with it a good dollop of fantasy. The stories are not fact, but they might well be, sometime in the future. A wondrous read. A wondrous cast of characters. And a terrific sense of adventure and action.

Cheryh comes through with another winner

I have read the entire series and constantly check the author's blog to see when the next book is due on the shelves. The only downside to this book is that it is too short and I will have to wait too long for the next one. As always the story line and character development are stellar and the teasing hints of what may come next keep you wanting more

Read thisif you liked the series at all

The only draw back is you need to read the prior books to get all of the details but a great read. One of the better books in the series. More action than the last one and I really like the where she seems to be going with story.

Wow!

Some would think that a series would be running out of steam/ideas by Book 10 but this book proves that is not always the case. This was a fabulous addition to the on-going story of the Foreigner universe. Don't try to read this book though if you haven't read the series. Do yourself a real favor and start from book 1 - so much fabulous reading lies ahead of you - I am envious. Can't wait for books 11 and 12 (she seems to write in trilogies). Cajeiri is only 8 years old so the series has a lot of future possibilities. These are not typical space opera but totally painless, utterly enjoyable courses in inter-cultural relations and the possibilities that are out there for understanding and agreeing with each other. Men and women alike can enjoy them.
