Star Trek Novels

I'm still in the process of catching up on all of my Star Trek reading. This book is next on my list and I shall return with an updated review ASAP! Thank you for your patience!

Wonderful leadup to DS9

The book series made me want to watch DS9 again. The author obviously did much research. Just about anything that was alluded to have happened "during the occupation" in the series is hashed out in this book series.

Wonderful read

This is the second novel in the three part series on Terok Nor, I found this on the best of the three, it gives wonderful tie ins to DS9 episodes and more in depth into the characters of Odo, Kira and other characters who fought in the bajoran ressistance.

The Plot Thickens...

The second book in the Occupation of Bajor series is set twenty years after the Cardassians had first arrived on the planet. Bajor is now completely (except for pockets of resistence fighters) annexed and conquered by the Cardassians, and we see how Dukat (now a Gul) became Prefect and overlord of the Bajoran people. We also met several familiar characters for the first time: Damar (Gul Dukat's right hamd man), the future Kai Opaka (it's a very interesting backstory about how her teachings led to a schism in the Bajor faith and about how the people gradually abandoned the rigid D'Jarra system), Ro Laren (whom viewers will remember as the first Bajoran introduced to Trek fans via The Next Generation), Odo (we get to see his early days in a Cardassian-Bajoran lab and the development of his shapeshifting skills and personality), Winn (as obnoxious and arrogant in the beginning as she was in her reign as Kai), and finally, Kira Nerys, a very young freedom fighter who has a bloodlust for destroying the Cardassians over the fate of her mother. All of the characters' stories are interwoven well, the writing is top notch and exciting, and this book leaves the reader dying to get to the next. The subject of this book is the evolution of the occupation and the erosion of Gul Dukat's promises and attitude concerning the Bajorans. This is an excellent book, but it is even better if it is read immediately after completing the first (Day of the Vipers) in the series. I can't wait to read Book Three. Happy Reading!

Great Entry in the Series

This series just keeps getting better. Seeing the Occupation of Bajor is fascinating, especially as we follow Opaka Sulan's surprising spiritual "rebellion" of sorts and continue to see the Cardassian manipulation of Bajor's religion. From the cover, I expected Kira Nerys to play a much greater role, but the novel focuses more on the exploits of a few previously unknown characters and some old favorites. We get a glimpse of Dukat as prefect of Bajor and his right hand Cardassian, Damar, as they struggle to deal with the problems posed by the resistance as well as the intricacies of Cardassian politics. We also get a to see the discovery of Odo, which is done in a surprising way that, to me, fits right in with the feel of DS9. This is a very good second novel in the series and it leaves me looking forward to the third.
