Story
The first book in C.J.Cherryh's eponymous series, Foreigner begins an epic tale of the survivors of a lost spacecraft who crash-land on a planet inhabited by a hostile, sentient alien race. From its beginnings as a human-alien story of first contact, the Foreigner series has become a true science fiction odyssey, following a civilization from the age of steam through early space flight to confrontations with other alien species in distant sectors of space. It is the masterwork of a truly remarkable author.

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 to become the last stronghold in a titanic struggle between the vast, dynamic forces of the rebel Union and those who defended Earth's last, desperate grasp for the stars.

Story
They named him Thorn. They told him he was of their people, although he was so different. He was ugly in their eyes, strange, sleek-skinned instead of furred, clawless, different. Yet he was of their power class: judge-warriors, the elite, the fighters, the defenders. Thorn knew that his difference was somehow very important - but not important enough to prevent murderous conspiracies against him, against his protector, against his caste, and perhaps against the peace of the world. But when Thorn finally learned what his true role in life was to be, that the future of two worlds might hinge on him, then he had to stand alone to justify his very existence

Story
Scattered about the galaxy were the time-space Gates of a vanished but not forgotten alien race. In their time, long before the rise of the native civilizations, they had terrorized a hundred worlds—not from villainy but from folly, from tampering with the strands that held a universe together.
Now the task was to uproot these Gates, destroy their potency for mischief, take horror out of the hands of the few who hungered for power by misuse of the Gates.

Story
It was that transitional time of the world when man first brought the clang of iron and the reek of smoke to the lands which before had echoed only with fairy voices. In that dawn of man and death of magic, there yet remained one last untouched place - the small forest of Ealdwood - which kept the magic intact and protected the old ways. And there was one who dwelt there, Arafel the Sidhe, who had more pride and love of the world as it used to be than any of her kind.

Story
The constellation of Hydri, also called the Serpent, became an undesirable destination during the era of humanity's most prolific interstellar colonization. For Hydri was under strict quarantine because it harbored an intelligent and dangerous alien race, the insectoid majat. Yet human colonies predating the quarantine did exist in this sector of space, which they called Serpent's Reach. Cut off from others of their own kind, they had their own inbred culture and special relationships with the alien majat.

But all that changed on his assignment to the Cay Habitat, where a group of humanoids had been secretly, commercially bioengineered for working in free fall. Could he just stand there and allow the exploitation of hundreds of helpless children merely to enhance the bottom line of a heartless mega-corporation?

Geary believed in the Alliance. Even when he uncovered overwhelming evidence that the highest echelons of the government and fleet command were involved in secret programs and prison camps, he believed it was worth saving. He believed his duty was to see that justice was served even though some factions feared that revealing the truth would cause the Alliance to crumble. But after narrowly surviving two assassination attempts when he brings evidence of the misdeeds to the capital star system, Geary realizes that some want to get rid of him.

Always a good story!
As usual, CJ Cherry and Daniel Thomas May deliver a good story. Mr. May's performances of the many and varied character voices is consistently good. Thanks and kudos to both the author and the narrator.

Thoroughly enjoyable
Tracker continues the Bren Cameron story and picks up were the last one left off. The Foreigner series has become a favorite of mine and the combination of Cherryh's writing style and Daniel May's reading make it a real delight. I've no idea how may Cherryh will write in this series (this is book 16) but I suspect there is still much to cover.
If you are reading this review and are wondering if this series is worth it, I don't think you will be disappointed. The story line is not complicated and generally from a single point of view, not parallel stories and multiple sub plots. It continues with the characters that have been previously introduced as the saga continues, but we see them as they mature, become more experienced, and develop close relationships in this foreign world.
If you are considering this series, the first book is confusing at best and not Cherryh's strongest work, but it does set the stage for the subsequent books. It is a fun series and most highly recommended.

The 20 year story that never, ever grows old
Would you consider the audio edition of Tracker to be better than the print version?
I have not yet read the story but Daniel May is excellent at the job.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Tracker?
For the last 3 years I have wondered if this turn would take place, the other aliens come to call, now they have and the danger and the hope and the change begins.
Have you listened to any of Daniel Thomas May’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Great job, just what I expected, 10 out of 10.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This is a slightly wrong question, Ms Cherryh's books are exciting and expand one's universe - thus this book created excitement and expanded my universe.
Any additional comments?
The next book will be long awaited! Even if it comes out tomorrow!

This Series Just Gets Better With Every Book!
If you are acquainted with the series, you will know that Bren Cameron, the interpreter between several species and between factions of the Atevi population has recently helped with routing out some major traitors within the home world government while trying to successfully host visiting children from a long lost space post with the young Aiji.
This book now moves to activities "in the heavens" as expected visitors suddenly arrive, posing an inconvenient visit amid an almost civil war between the earth bound humans and the rescued Reunion humans. Cherryh does an excellent job of moving the characters not only through the story arc, but through growth as personalities as well. I was hugely impressed at how masterfully she has done this with so many powerful personalities in the story.
Daniel Thomas May "IS" Bren Cameron. He brings power to the character's voices and a stead pace to a very active storyline. He makes it real :-)

A the saga continues!
I was so delighted to see another installment of this amazing and complex series. I found myself listening to it in nearly a single sitting.
The interplay of characters, the complex politics and customs, all make for an extremely engaging tale. Ms. Cherryh is a master at development of character and true - feeling interplay. Her "villains" aren't monsters, but people with a bit of power and not quite enough empathy or foresight. Her "heroes" are people who do what needs to be done under difficult circumstances. I can't wait to see how Irene - Nandi's character role is expanded, as well as Cajeri's, in future books!
Narrator Daniel Thomas May holds it all together with his consistent voice portrayals through all the books. I recognize each character's voice as they come into the story.
