โฆ Synopsis
Review
"An excellent, action-filled book, replete with the finely tuned social and scientific detail one has grown to expect from Cherryh." -Kliatt "Cherryh's customary strengths are all here--brisk pacing, above-average characterization of both human sexes and also of nonhumans, and genuinely brilliant world-building." -Booklist "For interesting aliens, try Cherryh's SERPENT'S REACH. In it she has created what may be the first sympathetic hive mind in SF. Cherryh has successfully avoided almost all the mystic pseudoscience claptrap inspired in her predecessors by Earth's social insects. She has achieved a Hive intelligence that makes sense. I congratulate her and I look forward to her attempt to top it. -Analog
