Deceiver by C.J. Cherryh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The only thing wrong with this book is that I have to wait 'til April for the next one. >-< (that's a grumpy face). I like how she's changing points of view. It began a book or so ago and at first, I wasn't sure how I felt about it -- gasp! change in my comfortable atevi world? -- but now am liking it quite a lot. There were some truly hilarious scenes with Ilisidi and Cajieri, and of course the trademark tension of a potentially deadly political disaster resulting in bloodshed. And one scene where Tano puts his hand out to block Barb from hugging Bren with her typical brainlessness and she is knocked backward to the the floor, hitting her head and effectively shutting her up by rendering her unconscious. Something that should've been done to Barb several books back as I'm sure other readers of the series will agree.
