Foreigner is essentially a first contact story about aliens landing on a planet and having to learn to deal with its inhabitants. The big twist is that we re the aliens. A human colony ship got lost in space after a bad hyperspace jump. The first two sections of Foreigner fast-forward through their journey, their arrival in the new system, the horrific challenges they face as they realize there is no way home. These two sections only account for about one seventh of the novel (about 60 of my paperback s 420 or so pages) and should probably be considered something like a prologue to the entire series, because it s only afterwards that the real story gets started. A copy that has been read, but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact.
