A ruin, tree-drowned in a forest seeming endless as the sea; a keep poised on a rock that had once been the height of a mighty citadel. Now there survived only a few shattered towers and fragments of statues, some that smiled, and some, the faces of vanished kings, serene and blind. " "Cherryh (pronounced "Cherry") appended a silent "h" to her real name because her first editor, Donald A. Wollheim, felt that "Cherry" sounded too much like a romance writer. Her initials, C. J. , were used to disguise the fact that she was female at a time when almost all science fiction authors were male. The author has an asteroid, 77185 Cherryh, named after her. Referring to this honor, the asteroid's discoverers wrote of Cherryh: "She has challenged us to be worthy of the stars by imagining how mankind might grow to live among them." Cherryh was the Guest of Honor at FenCon IX in Dallas/Fort Worth on September 21–23, 2012." 0061051950 #34173 $20 All orders ship within two business days. Standard mail is USPS Media Mail.
