I just finished Forty Thousand in Gehenna by CJ Cherryh. This is only the second book of hers that I've read, the first being The Dreaming Tree. Based on these two books alone, I'm ready to conclude that Cherryh is an amazing talent. Whereas Tree is magnificent, magical, fantasy fare, Gehenna is thought-provoking sociological colonization first-contact sci-fi. It takes, I would think, great skill and imagination to write these two very different types of thoroughly entertaining books. Later on in the challenge I'll be reading the four books in Cherryh's Morgaine saga. I look forward to it.
