I try to shy away from Star Trek books, since most are just so poorly written, but I tried my luck and was richly rewarded!
This entire trilogy is just awesome! It's Trek at it's best. Besides the typical trek writing, my other fear was “Oh great, another book about the borg, the Enterprise narrowly escaping and saving the day” but was pleasantly surprised that that wasn't the case (well of course to some degree it was LOL), and along the way, huge things happened that were just awesome.
If you're a sci fi fan, but leery of Trek books, give this series a shot, it's a good read!
This was my first time reading a Star Trek book so being a huge fan of the shows/movies I had high hopes. Unfortunately these hopes weren't met. The plot was good and the central mysteries were engaging but for some reason I found it a slog to get through and didn't really care about the non TV crew members. Funnily enough I would love to see a TV adaptation of the story but I don't think I'll be continuing with the trilogy
A solid read, actually better than I expected from any novel in the Star Trek Universe. It keeps the mushy stuff to a bare minimum and gets on with the story line that is actually quite good.
