Marvellous!

This was an immensely spellbinding and interesting read... The concept of having such a wonderfully continuous storyline is great, and extremely well thought-out. The stories blend nicely, and tell different parts of the complete story in each book. The characters, especially in the last two books, are portrayed very lifelike and true to their roles in the TV series -- they had me laughing at quite a few occasions! I had to put down everything else to finish this book first!

Simply the finest written Trek yet...

If you're like Trek then you will like this book. The 4 novel saga spans the centuries and does so with the greatest of fluidity. The basic premise is simple, an epic war took place in our little piece of universe before we got here. The loser of the war wants the universe back and the winners are nowhere to be found. The first novel introduces the losers and reveals that their presence has actually been well documented in the history of our quadrants aliens through mythology, from the Vulcan mythology to Human mythology and so on. The second novel finds Picard and the NG crew fight the FURIES off again in a true epic. The third novel gets a little more technical but finds us finally introduced to the victors in that epic war fought so long ago. These creatures are just plain cool... If not a bit gory... LoL. The 4th brings us back to the FURIES as they attempt to simply transport their entire planet into the alpha quadrant! This is by far the best of the 4 and completes the saga perfectly. I read this installment in a day. All and all it took me 10 days to read the 958 pages and that's saying a lot for me... You'll enjoy this..

Indubitably the best ST novel on the market at this time!

One of its chief qualities is, IMHO, the consistency and continuity between the four stories; it puts the four series into perspective and brings them together into one story-line in a way that just hadn't been done before! And besides, the third 'episode' actually convinced me to watch DS9, because the characters in the book were so interesting; and to my (good) surprise, they were exactly the same in the series, which I now love! The fourth 'episode' had the funniest bits, especially the one with Janeway's hairpin. That was a hoot! All in all, the best Star Trek literature around!

BOOM!!! What else can I say excellent...

Now this is a book that is well worth the money. Four crews one enemy. Whoever thought of this idea should get a medal. The most exciting book I have ever read. Even though I brought each book individually I would have loved to have had all the stories in one book. BUY IT and say Cecil recommedned it to you.

This book was filled with non-stopped action.

Invasion is the best Star Trek story I have read so far. It is filled with action, mystery, and fear. I couldn't put it down from the time I picked it up. It was well planned out and each of the author's worked well with each other to write it.
