5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have in any SF collection., 1 July 2008

By	D. B. Rose (South Africa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Pride of Chanur (Mass Market Paperback)

'Pride', while a great story on its own, is really an introduction to the glorious Chanur series (for all the titles, see below).

The Hani are a feline alien species, living in an area known as Compact Space - not because it is small, but because it is governed by a seven-way multispecies agreement known as 'The Compact'. Hani are also the junior race among the seven very different species. Then they acquire a fugitive human stowaway, and the trouble starts....

This is great space opera, but it is so much more as well. The depth of the characters, the alien races, the relationships, the impact of actions and events, all make for excellent literature, which happens to be SF!

An absolute must-have: if any of my set went missing, I would do anything, including steal, to replace it.

The whole series consists of:
The Pride of Chanur
Chanur's Venture
The Kif Strike Back
Chanur's Homecoming
Chanur's Legacy

5.0 out of 5 stars Pride of Chanur, 16 Oct 2006

By	Dr. D. Jayasinghe (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Pride of Chanur (Library Binding)

An excellent book.
I think if you like Cherryh you won't be disappointed.
If you have yet to read Cherryh then this is a good one to start with. It is space opera at its best. The hani, an all female crew are an unlikely yet convincing species. They are faced with moral dilemmas that result in tense and difficult times for this crew. My only reservation for those sci-fi fans is that it isn't really an action packed novel and not for those techno-geeks who love space gadgetry, however, I think it is a great read and very different from many other sci-fi books that are around.
