I knew a Sharpe reference would draw you out of the woodwork!
As for the journals, unless you have access to a library that subscribes to them or can get them on loan, you'd have to order them directly. I can give you the articles, though; they sent me pdf's... Also, my latest review has been posted on Metapsychology Online.
I can totally relate to your frustration with Cherryh. The Foreigner series is so cozy for me I don't mind it, but sometimes it seems like the same book over and over again. I wish there were more books in the Alliance/Union series. I read Downbelow Station, Finity's End and Cyteen and really liked them, although Cyteen had some of the same flaws one finds in the Foreigner books: the bulk of the novel is taken up by characters intensely pondering what other characters are thinking or planning, and then the plot gets resolved by a burst of action right at the end.

I'll have to look into Tepper.
