Review # 1 was written on 2011-06-27 00:00:00 Soichiro Nakade Another curious and enjoyable stand-alone SF novel. This one read like the missing link between Peter Watts' Blindsight and Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House. A trio of spacers get hauled aboard an alien craft where they encounter the less than sane remains of an alien AI.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-05-20 00:00:00 Doug Dobrava Voyager In Night by C.J. Cherryh follows three human space miners trapped in a vast, mysterious alien ship, and has almost everything that makes good science fiction great. Yet it was a little difficult for me to get into due to the alien naming convention - characters named "< >," "< / >," "< ^ >," etc., awkward for me to read and keep straight, and also the multiple instances of human characters' simulacra (avatars / androids) with the same names, sometime referred to as Rafe Two, Paul One, Jillan-Face, etc., which also became hard to keep straight. The characters are explored inside-out, and the reason for the "< / >" names becomes clearer as the story unfolds, and it's worth the effort of a careful read.
