4.0 out of 5 stars Explorer (Foreigner), 22 Dec 2004

By	Mr. Keith A. Lepla "keith_lepla" (Lichfield, Staffs, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Explorer (Foreigner Universe Books) (Paperback)

All of the Foreigner series are highly enjoyable reads developing understanding of the characters and also the cultures of colonist human, ship based human and the indiginous ateva. The ateva have a highly structured society with such profound differences from human that only one human interpreter has historically been allowed to mediate to reduce the liklihood of conflict.

Yes there is 'action' but always the main driver of the story is the characters and the interaction between them as individuals and representatives of their cultural backgrounds

In this book Bren and of course Banichi, Jago, Sidi-ji etc combine to join with 'the Ship' to journey to the Reunion station to rescue the 4000 survivors of an alien attack.

Fascinating negotiations with 'Pilots Guild' running Reunion and also the besieging 'Kyo' aliens lead into a satisfying conclusion

I am looking forward to Destroyer!
