Peacemaker

Foreigner Sequence 5, Book 3

By: C. J. Cherryh

Narrated by: Daniel May

At last - Cajeiri has his young guests from the starship, three young folk entranced by weather and trees and creatures with minds of their own. It’s all he dreamed of.... But now safety is foremost: Cajeiri’s grandfather has been assassinated, hostile Assassins Guild invaded Great-uncle’s house, and now Bren Cameron, paidhi-aiji, who was sent to keep the aiji’s son safe, has more than the young guests on his mind. The aiji-dowager knows who’s to blame for the attacks, and they’re going after him. The fact that the person responsible is in the heart of Assassins’ Guild Headquarters, the most closely guarded fortress on the continent, is not going to stop her. Bren Cameron has the pieces now, of a decades-old plot that’s been threaded through Guild actions going back before his arrival on the continent, and more - he knows the person responsible is going to find out he knows, and find out within hours. They have no choice. If they don’t move, the other side will. And the lives of the boy, the guests, the entire ruling family are at stake.

One of better stories!

A fast paced story with multiple themes at the same time! One of the best!

A must for people who love thiseries

As always Cherryh has give this section of this saga a good ending. Lots of action and drama. I can't for the next three.

This is one of my favorite stories of the series.

Full of intrigue, danger, and suprising warmth and humor. with a happy ending Great story!

end of sequence 5

This is the last book in this sequence and really at this time 30 Oct 2014 this is the last book in this whole series of books but more are being created now so if like me you really liked these books you want more but after reading these books for like 9 months I want to take a break so I a few years I hope a few more sequences are released and I can get back into this.

This whole series was great, a few of the books were a little better then the others otherwise it would have been a 5 star across the board.

The narrator was simply great, he did a great job at the different voices with exception of maybe a few that I thought was someone else - like Brens Brother and some guy from the state department, the voices sound pretty much the same but I guess this can happen in real life and there are only so many voices one can do and there were lots of characters in this whole series so the narrator did a great job, 5 star for sure.

Foreigner universe series

This was one of the best in the series.
Bren,Jase and the three human children celebrate Cajeiri birthday in several places and several ways. Meanwhile a shooting war erupts, there are assassinations, mecheita are ridden and Cajeiri’s pet scares assassins out of hiding. The Guild solves a conspiracy.
I can see the Gala with the people all in court dress and the ceramic displays in glass cases. The museum president drones on about ceramics while the crowd ebbs and flows.As usual the food is mouthwatering ( avoiding the alkaloids)
One scene sticks with me- Cajeiri ‘s great uncle (who hated humans) gives the little girl one of the irreplaceable ceramic cups to hold and plans surprises for the kids purely for their pleasure.
I’ve enjoyed all of the nooks but I loved this one.
