Fantastic - one of the best Trek books I have read
|
I am suprised at some of the mixed reviews for this book as I genuinely couldn't put it down. This is the follow on to the "OK" Resistance book and my only slight complaint was the cliff hanger ending, which isn't really a negative as this surely means a third book is due. This does however have some truly great moments, my personal favourite is The Borg queen threatening the Q with assimilation, a scene I would love to have seen in a film or TV show. If you are thinking of buying then obviously get Resistance first then read this - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

A Cracking Read
|
|
First things first - we know this is not canon, because its a book not a film or TV show - so we can get over the worries of what happens to who and what. The book is fast paced, well written, gripping, exciting and a page turner. Picard's reactions to events are perfectly scripted as are the other members of the 'old crew'. The guess stars of Lady Q and Spook give the book further depth and interest. As a sequel to Resistance it is excellent. I am enjoying these post Nemesis books immensely.

New moves!

I felt the above comments were valid but feel they can be seen positively, I mean the Janeway thing - surely the next book they will reverse it and she'll pop up from nowhere!
I felt the shifts were good and for me it was a page turner a good mash of all of our favourites! It is perhaps not too deep but if you want something that will keep you going for a few days and not wanting to put down this is worth it!

Bad Ending
|
|
Although, I enjoyed the concept of this book, it had a really bad ending. I really don't like these non-canon books that don't use the same words for things as they do on the tv. Just generally not a good attempt from a star trek book. Try something by Christie Golden.
