Description:
Praise for Downbelow Station : Winner of the 1982 Hugo Award for Best Novel "[ Downbelow Station ] has a marvellous perspective on humanity in the wider universe.... The plot is a complex maneuvering of factions and realignment of interests. There are space battles, and there are economics of space stations.... It's a novel about desperate people, desperate spacestations, desperate aliens, a desperate spacefleet that's out of choices." --Tor.com "A solid, vividly realized background; excellent characterization of humans and aliens; and an ability to keep a story moving... Intelligent space adventure , conceived and executed on a grand scale." -- Booklist "Take one highly vulnerable space station. Pack it with realistic characters. And then start a war. You'll end up with 1982's Hugo winner, Downbelow Station , by C.J. Cherryh -- and a hell of a story ." --io9 "Cherryh has created her strongest character and her best novel in a story of space exploration, colonization, and war." -- Questar " Full of imagination , action, and understandable, sympathetic characters...." -- Analog "The well-drawn variety of backgrounds and motivations of the characters is the work's strength." -- VOYA " Downbelow Station is a fascinating, complex deep-space-war political novel with a lot of subtle twists." -- Fantasiae
