This was good, but it also showed you the heroic tragic deaths of basically every person on DS9 except Quark. People joke all the time that they like to torture their characters, but this shit was for real. This was an intense story involving the characters of Deep Space 9 and aliens from the Wormhole. The title comes from the deaths of all the major players on the station and how Quark manages to put them at risk and manages to save them. If you enjoyed the series you will love this story. The only problem with the book is that unlike the series everything reverts back to normal. In the series this story would have been an episode in a larger story arch. When Quark buys an unknown device from the gamma quadrant it sets in motion a series of events. Odo and Quark find they are 3 days in to the future. A strange ship comes through the wormhole demanding the release of the other. The story goes between Odo and Quark trying to piece together what has happened, and the people on the station dealing with the attack. Very well done. Good interactions between Odo and Quark. I have found this to be one of the most gripping Star Trek novels that I have read and although the ending is fairly predictable the journey grabbed and held my attention until the very end. I try to avoid spoilers in the main part of my reviews which makes this plot hard to comment on in any detail so I will add a section for spoilers at the end. Characterization is pretty good overall with some miner missteps on a few characters Odo's meanness in this novel comes to mind. I do appreciate that this author remembers that O'Brien has combat experience and makes good use of it. I highly recommend this book and the only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that a few characters suffer from unkind characterizations that don't fit their character. The Good:
The Bad:
Spoilers: This is a good book taking place during the early seasons of the TV show. The Audiobook is read by Rene Auberjonois, which is fun as Odo is the principal character, along with Quark. ab Hugh does a good job with all the characterizations - clearly has a good handle on each unique personality. I loved the show and if you did as well, you'll enjoy this book. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
