LikedI do have to say I really like Nor Crystal Tears. I really, really like what Alan Dean Foster was doing with that whole series of books, but does it deserve an award?

Nor Crystal Tears (1982)
Creators: Liked Humanx Commonwealth #9 “Before Man and insectlike Thranx had become allies, when the reptilian AAnn were just occasional raiders of Thranx colony worlds, one young Thranx agricultural expert lived a life of quiet desperation. A dreamer in a world of sensible, stable beings, Ryo buried himself in his work -- reclaiming marshland from a tenacious jungle -- until he came across a letter describing a relative's encounter with horrid, two-legged, soft-skinned space-going beasts…” From Goodreads
