Looking for Trader Tales
I'm looking for science fiction or fantasy stories about traders or caravan guards like Nathan Lowell's Solar Clipper series, Balance of Trade by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, and the first two Stavin books by Loren Jones. I've tried Andre Norton's Sargasso of Space, but didn't care for it.

Anyone have any recommendation?

Thanks!

One that immediately springs to mind are Poul Anderson's "Van Rijn" stories, collected together in an omnibus edition by Baen.

Elizabeth Moon's Vatta's War focuses a lot on trading. The first book is called "Trading In Danger."
