Long passages that don't really have much happening, but the main character, Bren Cameron, doing a stream of consciousness angst. Which usually I would avoid like the plague. But here, it works for me. The world Ms. Cherryh has created is compelling, different, and interesting, and the characters are consistent. I'm going to read right through this series, though I wish #2-6 were available as eBooks not just Audible books. (And yes, at some point, I had them all as pBooks, but they're long gone. )
Finished Cold War Swap, moved on to Cast a Yellow Shadow. I enjoyed Cold War Swap a lot. While a product of its time, it's one that has stood the test of time. The characters are still cynical and interesting, and Ross Thomas is a superb storyteller.

Also, finished CJ Cherryh's Invader, moving on to Inheritor.
