I’m always looking for media featuring aliens, especially multiple races. Came across this on TvTropes. Seems to dismiss the first book and say its unneeded. Anyone here enjoy/hate this one? Any starting point you’d recommend? Most importantly how prominent are the aliens?
Honestly might just jump to Reef based on that! I’ll do some more research first.
Startide does give some context to make some of Reef’s anomalies more interesting earlier than Reef by itself would reveal. (Don’t want to say more to avoid spoilers.)
