I agree, Sherlock Holmes is the far more developed character. But then Doyle created a much larger body of work. Here is why it is considered the first; quoted from the introduction by Heilbrun. "Certain it is that Sergeant Cuff, on his appearance almost a century and a half ago, established the...

When my children were young, we didn't have a TV. So I planned nap time around Hitchhiker on the radio. It wasn't until years later that I saw video version. I still love the animated book - the bugblatter beast going after the vorgon's grandmother... BTW vorgon poetry and peril chromatic...

I loved it! And Ashlea, don't worry about it being daunting. It's quite readable. In any case it's touted as being the first detective novel. Enjoy.

Dune by Herbert Adventure by the tons and the protagonist, Paul is a still a teenager when the book begins. Besides, then the Lynch film becomes comprehensible, almost.

Hey Martin (and all), Have you read Wyrms by OS Card? His Ender stuff gets all the press (and it deserves it), but I loved this book. Though it has nothing whatsoever to do with cats... But I remember it having the same feel as Morgaine. Don't as why.

I found it! The Sholan Alliance is a series by Lisanne Norman. Cat-like aliens come to earth and one of the teams with a telepath. If this isn't it I give up. On the dream side... type [cat-like alien erotic fiction] in google. My search had science instead of erotic and there was still much...

I found it! I think. I haven't read this series, but it seems promising - The Sholan Alliance by Lisanne Norman. The only problem is that the first book was published in 1993. Maybe you read it as a tweenager... I haven't read the Rusalka series, but I devoured the Morgaine Chronicles.

While possessed by a similar thread I came across the Doona series by McCaffrey. Is this your series?

Could it be the Doona series by McCaffrey? Haven't read them... the synopsis of the first one doesn't seem promising, but maybe a later one is it. But, you know, I seem to remember your book as well and now I'm obsessed. I shall look further. It's either that or work!

Definitely not the Chanur series, they never come to Earth - the series is set in the great space beyond... The cat people coming to earth sounds very intriguing! Must research this.

How about the Chanur Saga by C. J. Cherryh? Excellent series of books, but anything she (?) writes is great.

Oops! Posted before coffee, this is to replace Lady of Avalon which is fantasy... Is this allowed?

Lensman. Ok it's a series, but it was originally meant to be a four part novel.

Barbara Hambly's Those Who Hunt The Night and Traveling With The Dead are great and I suspect you might have heard of them as she is one of the biggies... But one that you might not have heard of and one that I found a fantastic read is Raven by S. A. Swiniarski. Totalling gripping from start...
