Reviews"Eleventh in the Foreigner series, the longest single protagonist's career in science fiction, Deceiver is as elegantly complex and satisfying as its predecessors ...Complicated and aided by the Aijii-Dowager Ilisidii and a rapidly maturing Cajeiri, Tabini's wayward son, the situation moves in Ms. Cherryh's inimitable style from detail to nuance to emotionally wrenching risks...another must-have from the master of cultural conflict." - Sacramento Book Review "The worldbuilding and characterization are fascinating ." - RT Book Review "Cherryh's gift for conjuring believable alien cultures is in full force here, and her characters...are brought to life with a sure and convincing hand." - Publishers Weekly
