A classic and still as enjoyable now as the last time I read it, however many years ago that was. Told from thr POV of Ryo (mostly) one of the Thranx - intelligent alien bugs - this is the story of first-contact with the human race. This has to be the first time in a long while that I've sat and read a book cover to cover almost without stopping. Highly recommended.

I think this, the Icerigger trilogy and his short stories collections "With friends like these...." "...who needs enemies" are my favorite of Fosters. He's certainly prolific enough...
On a side note, I just finished re-reading your Owner Sequence and was wondering if we'll go back to that universe or if the Polity is it now?
Thanks.
