The Anthi series consists of two science fiction novels by Deborah Chester: The Children of Anthi (1985) and Requiem for Anthi (1990). The books are set on an alien world and explore the lives of its non-human inhabitants. The five-year gap between publications suggests Chester developed the story over an extended period.
The Anthi books come from the early part of Chester’s career, when she was transitioning from romance into science fiction. The duology shows her working with alien worldbuilding and science fiction concepts that would carry over into her later series like Operation Star Hawks and the Alien Chronicles.
