CONTENTS Art Gallery Articles Columns ... Forum Deliverer by C.J. Cherryh Reviewed by Siobhan Carroll 18 April 2007 C. J. Cherryh has always excelled at describing the alien. Whether her novels feature actual alien creatures (as in The Chanur Saga ) or merely human beings so clinically detached from their peers that they might as well be from a different species (as in Cyteen ), Cherryh's stories center on the experience of encounter Cherryh's Foreigner series, of which Deliverer is the latest installment, is easily her most successful exploration of this topic. Originally conceived as a collection of short stories documenting a sprawling history of human-alien interaction, the project instead found a novelistic focus, heart, and soul in the experience of Bren Cameron, a descendent of human spacefarers marooned on an alien planet. Bren occupies the dangerous position of paidhi, the official human- atevi translator and the only human allowed on the alien mainland. The stakes he faces are high: the last cultural misunderstanding on the planet exploded into a war that almost destroyed his people and resulted in humans being confined to a single island. As a condition of the peace treaty negotiated by the first paidhi , Bren's unenviable task is to "translate" human actions and technology to an utterly alien species, knowing that a single mistake could mean the death of every human on the planet.

Back To Authors Page Home Author Review: C. J. Cherryh (1942 – Present) Review Written By: Digger Biography Writing Style Body of Work C. J. Cherryh Links Biography C. J. Cherryh’s real name is Carolyn Janice Cherry. She was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1942. Her initial career was as a teacher of Classics, but she is now a full time writer. Her first book Gate of Ivrel was published in 1976. She is an accomplished photographer and artist in addition to her writing skills. In 1977 she won the John W. Campbell award for best new writer, and has won the Hugo award 3 times and been nominated a further 3 times. She is a prolific writer with over 50 novels to her credit at the time of this review (1999), and numerous short stories and collaborations. Back To Authors Page Home Top Writing Style Cherryh's writing flows across the page. She tends to delve deeply into the motivations, and emotional state of her characters; therefore, although the plots are always well drawn, her books are not a full-fledged race from one action scene to another. Definitely for the more thoughtful reader, she draws extensively on her interests in anthropology, botany, climatology and engineering. She writes both science fiction and fantasy novels. Her science fiction works provide sufficient technical explanation to make the worlds believable, without being Asimov-like expositions of advanced physics and engineering. She appears to have a particular interest in the evolution of intelligent predators and this theme runs through several of her series.

Cherryh's Fiction Literary Review Spring, 2001 by Burton Raffel Consider, first, a novel about a thirty-seven-year-old ship's crew-woman, thrown up on the beach by an economic squeeze, unemployed and unemployable because unwilling to change a way of life that simply does not exist on shore. She has been left in a dying port, where ships seldom dock and those that do cannot offer her employment. Without alternatives or resources, she contemplates starvation (or even suicide). She is becoming physically shrunken; her clothing is worn, almost tattered. "She smelled strongly of soap, of restroom disinfectant soap, a scent [one] had to think awhile to place." The "beach" in Rimrunners is literally a space station; the "ships" are space-going. The fiction is science fiction. But genre labels become irrelevant, at such fully realized and masterful levels. The Lord of the Rings is high-quality fiction, period. It is not simply or primarily fairy-tale or fantasy fiction. Alice in Wonderland is high-quality fiction, not a children's book. Both are unassailably (and enduringly) literature. And so too are the adventure tales (though we tend for obvious reasons not to think of them as adventure tales) of Joseph Conrad, Albert Camus, Franz Kafka and Joseph Roth, Robert Louis Stevenson and Herman Melvilleand those of C. J. Cherryh.

C.J. Cherryh, Arafel's Saga (Daw, 1983) Long have I been haunted by a song on a filk recording. The disc is Freedom, Flight, and Fantasy , and the track is called "Arafel's Lament." I first heard this song about eight years ago perhaps more and I really wanted to read the book it had come from, so imagine my delight when I found it at the local newspaper's big book sale event. Here I had the whole tale in its entirety, both The Dreamstone and The Tree of Swords and Jewels are contained in this hardcover volume and I'd only known about the latter all for $2.00 (Canadian, of course). These novels deal with Celtic myth, and most especially the tale of the last of the elves. Arafel guards a remaining portion of the great forest of Eald which once covered the entire Earth, but now is reduced to a much smaller state. In the heart of Ealdwood she lives, guarding the trees where her people hung their swords and jewels as they faded from our world. Humans and their much despised iron brought about the downfall of the elves, and Arafel, for the most part, has as little to do with them as possible. She is the last of her kind, and seeks only to protect the forest which remains and keep the humans from killing off its magic. This all changes when a human ventures into the Ealdwood, and Arafel finds herself giving aid instead of death. Niall Dublachan is an outcast, awaiting the time when the king's child will be able to rightfully take his throne. Niall was once a warrior for the king, but the king was murdered and his supporters killed and scattered. Arafel helps Niall, sending him to a haven, Beorc's Steading, where all wounded creatures come for aid if they are able. It is a place between times and it heals the spirit with its own brand of magic. Niall is content, but the world is not ready for him to rest in such a peaceful place.

Earth-Alliance-Union Introduction My first exposure to Cherryh was through Fortress in the Eye of Time , an intense book about identity and power, magic and rebirth. It was incredible, but difficult going, even for me. I think that's true of many of Cherryh's novels. She is one of the best authors I have ever read, but she can be hard to get used to. Once you pick up her style, though, it becomes easier and easier with each successive book. The best place to start would probably be with her Cyteen/Pell/Earth Wars books (except "Cyteen" itself, which is wonderful but dense on the first reading). The ones I found reasonably simple include Merchanter's Luck Finity's End Rimrunners Heavy Time , and Hellburner . The first three are about life in the Alliance side of her world, and the last two are set before the war, back in the asteroid belt around Sol. Most of these books are independent of one another, except for the "Cyteen" trilogy and "Hellburner", which is a sequel to "Heavy Time". Another in the series is

59. C.J. Cherryh:Heavy Time While C.J. cherryh s Alliance/Union universe definitely originates from Earth, she hasn t spent much time in our system until recently. http://www.telusplanet.net/public/alfvaen/reviews/heavy_time.html

C.J. Cherryh:Heavy Time While C.J. Cherryh's Alliance/Union universe definitely originates from Earth, she hasn't spent much time in our system until recently. Heavy Time , the first book to do so, takes place early in the timeline, and centers around that popular SF theme, the asteroid miners. It also contains a big impersonal Company that dislikes independents. Dekker's story, when he returns to base and regains some of his faculties, was that he and his partner happened upon a rich find, but a nearby Company mass-driver claimed it instead. Somehow, by "accident", the 'driver sent a rock into their ship. But according to Company logs, there was no mass-driver at those coordinates. They start by accusing him of causing his partner's death, then finally declare it an accident. I was never quite sure what the organization called the Shepherds was doing; something to do with retrieving rocks in Jupiter's gravity well, and also having a lot to do with the Company's downfall. This is well up to Cherryh's standards. One grows to grudgingly like Ben, despite his hard-headed stubbornness and monomania, and Cherryh's a master at drawing desperate characters like Paul Dekker. Highly recommended.

SCIENCE FICTION BOOK SELECTION DOWNBELOW STATION by C.J. CHERRYH Downbelow Station (1981) 1982 Hugo Award winner An Alliance-Union Universe book dealing with The Company Wars DAW science fiction paperback 477 pages cover art by David B. Mattingly (left) book club edition cover art by REGO (right) From the back cover of the paperback: The Beyond started with the Stations orbiting the stars nearest Earth. The Great Circle the interstellar freighters traveled was long, but not unmanageable, and the early Stations were dependant on Mother Earth. The Earth Company which ran this immense operation reaped incalculable profits and influenced the affairs of nations. Then came Pell, the first station centered around a newly discovered living planet. The discovery of Pell's World forever altered the power balance of the Beyond. Earth was no longer the anchor which kept this vast empire from coming adrift, the one living mote in a sterile universe. But Pell was just the first living planet. Then came Cyteen, and later others, and a new and frighteningly different society grew in the farther reaches of space. The importance of Earth faded and the Company reaped ever smaller profits as the economic focus of space turned outward. But the powerful Earth Fleet was still a presence in the Beyond, and Pell Station was about to become the final stronghold in a titanic struggle between the vast, dynamic forces of the rebel Union and those who defended Earth's last desperate grasp at the stars.
