Review Quotes

Praise for Regenesis

"Complex and rich, with beautifully rounded characters, this novel can stand alone, but will delight fans of Cyteen with extra layers of meaning that resonate between old and new." --Publishers Weekly (starred Review)

"In Alliance-Union, there is lots of room between moral absolutes, and in this big book, lots of space for absorbing characters; for adventure, intrigue, and violence; and for plausible extrapolations of current technologies and institutions." --Booklist

"Cherryh's storytelling talent remains unmatched for its clearness of execution and its exceptional readability. Highly recommended." --Library Journal

"Cherryh's latest remains true to her original dystopian vision." --Romantic Times

"It has been twenty long years since Cyteen was first released and happily, the continuation Regenesis was worth the wait. A fine piece of work that displays Cherryh's mastery of the storyteller's art." --Monsters & Critics
