Normally I really like Cherryh's writing, but not this time. I got halfway through the book and realized that I didn't care about any of the characters and didn't care what happened to them. Maybe something happens later to turn that around, but I just felt that reading more wouldn't be worth my time.

For fifty years, Dr. Ariane Emory has dominated politics on Cyteen Station. Because Dr. Emory controls Reseune, a city-sized factory that creates the one item essential to the planet's wealth. Reseune produces people - computer-trained azi servants and soldiers.

Then Ariane Emory is assassinated...

The Cyteen trilogy is quite possibly my favorite of Cherryh's work.

The Cyteen series is my absolute favorite of Cherryh's. I read it a LONG time ago, and it's still stuck with me! HIGHLY recommended!
