Truly Epic trilogy that is a Must Read for ALL Trek fans!

If you are a fan of any Trek series, this book is for you. If you especially like DS9, there is no frinxing (I hated the way Quark used that swear-word) way you should miss this trilogy.To date, this trilogy combined in one book is my favorite Trek (not just DS9) novel! Time-travel, religion/philosophy/science, alternative timelines, the War of all Wars, the End of the Universe, the destruction of DS9, False and True Emissaries, THE Sisko... there is simply soo much to this book that it is amazing the authors didn't lose focus. In fact, all the plots are handled well and very few plot holes emerge. The novel starts off investigating a simple murder and quite simply takes off from there. Once the Red Orbs are discovered I found I literally could not put down the books. I read the whole trilogy in just over a week, making this my fastest read trilogy ever (faster than the Lord of the Rings, which admittedly is slightly longer).The characterizations in this book are spot on perfect. There is subtle foreshawdowing to events that occur in season 7 of DS9 and the last episode of Season 6. The events in this book take place after Sisko et al try to save the dying woman Captain from the planet but before the season 6 finale... which means we get to see Jadzia Dax in action! Some of the subtle hints to her death are quite sad, yet never do they or other allusions become overdone.Also, Admiral Picard makes an important appearance in this trilogy... Yes, he is finally an admiral, with QUITE an important mission! Other characters, notably Voyager ones, make short appearances. In the alternate timeline we also get to hear what has happened to most of our beloved characters like Riker. And hey why not bring back Thomas Riker for some fun? Vic himself plays quite an important role and his philosophical inquiries are intriguing.The authors know much about Trekdom and share that knowledge well, though they limit it so as not to make the book ridiculous like some other Trek books. They are also experts in nonlinear time and time travel. Real explanations for why I can or cannot kill my grandfather are given, something I immensely enjoyed.How can a book that sees the return of Vash and Garak confronting himself (literally two Garaks!) fail to grab a reader's attention? It had mine continuously.If you'd like to know what I thought about each individual book, please look to my individual reviews for books 1-3. It is best to read every book in this series, although the authors try to make it so one can pick up book 2 or 3 without having read the previous one(s). I strongly recommend reading all 3 because you'll get a more full and rich understanding not only of DS9 and the books, but of your own life.Trilogy definitely deserves a hardcover release.

DS9 - Millennium - An exceptional Deep Space Nine trilogy!

Given that I continue to read all of the Star Trek series in order of their particular chronological release dates, I've looked at this particular trilogy for quite some time with no small measure of anxiousness to get to them. Now that I've made it to them, they were quite well worth the wait and shall be savored for quite some time. In this great Omnibus this writing team writes with a great sense of fluidity and an overall well balanced style. Unlike some previous Deep Space Nine authors, they show a great sense of knowledge of the series and Star Trek as a whole. They captured each characters personality and style flawlessly! Had this particular trilogy been set in either Star Trek The Next Generation or Star Trek Voyager series it most certainly would've garnered three hardbacks, but fortunately for us, Pocket Books up to this point still wasn't willing to foot the bill for a Deep Space Nine hardback even for this trilogy which so richly deserved it! Fortunately this outstanding Omnibus is now available and quite well worth it!Set somewhere in the frenetic sixth season of Deep Space Nine, Millennium is a project of epic proportions for Star Trek fiction that simply leaves one breathless as they're completely enthralled in this page turner that compels the reader at a blistering pace from chapter to chapter leading you into a highly climatic ending.Star Trek Deep Space Nine Millennium Book I of III - The Fall of Terok NorThe premise:This story spans the history of Bajor and the short six years that Starfleet and Captain Sisko has been in command of Deep Space Nine. Going back to the Day of Withdrawal, the day the Cardassians withdrew from Bajor after sixty years of brutal oppression and slavery, this novel begins with Quark, Odo and Garak witnessing an event they will not remember for sometime...Captain Sisko finds himself and his crew in the precarious position of trying to solve the murder of an Andorian smuggler whose body guards wish to seek revenge upon Quark who they believe murdered the Andorian. At the same time, Vash appears on the station bringing her usual trouble with her and three Cardassians show up as well, despite being in the middle of the Dominion War in which they're clearly an enemy species. Add all of these events up and throw in some extremely interesting Bajoran artifacts that may spell doom for the station and what you have here is one of the most intriguing and compelling Star Trek Deep Space Nine stories ever put to print!Star Trek Deep Space Nine Millennium Book II of III The War of the ProphetsThe premise:At the conclusion of Book I, The Fall of Terok Nor, Captain Sisko and crew inadvertently brought together the three Red Orbs of Jalbador causing the destruction of Deep Space Nine and the creation of a second, red wormhole or temple to open up in Bajoran space. In a desperate attempt to save as many lives as possible during the destruction of the station, Sisko orders Deep Space Nine abandoned. He find

A spectacular book...one of a kind!

I am not much of a book reader but when I decided to start reading some Star Trek novels, this one really drew me in because it is superbly written on many levels. The author's have a rich and detailed knowledge of the star trek universe, they really know how to tell a story and best of all, it is a very poetic and elegant(sp) writing style unlike any I've seen before. It really got my imagination racing and my love of Star Trek has deepened even further. I just bought volume II of the series and I can't wait to start reading it. Any true Star Trek fan owes it to themself to read this series. The author's writing is phenominal!

Absolutely Awesome!

This 3 book series was a harrowing adventure through time! How many people are ambitious enough to end the universe, and then restore it? The plot keeps you hooked right up until the very last page. You definitely want to read this book, and I guarantee you you'll even read it again!

Deep Space Nine

The best Deep Space Nine ever. It should have been made an episode. It has a great plot. It takes place in DS9s sixth season. The ending will shock you. My favorite part is the end, but I can't tell you about the end. The plot keeps you interested all the way to the end. When you finish this one get number 2. It is even better.
