Why read it?
1 author picked Nor Crystal Tears as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I’m including this book in my list since it is the first book I have ever read that tells a story of human-alien interaction from the extraterrestrial’s perspective–A theme that has held my interest to this day. I liked the main character, Ryo, an agricultural engineer of the insectoid thranx species, and I appreciated how the thranx and humans overcame their differences to form an alliance, which became known in later books as the “Humanx Commonwealth”.
From Phil's list on first contact science fiction novels.
