Although I'm not a huge Deep Space Nine fan, I really loved this set! It's full of action, suspense, romance, and everything else for the Star Trek enthusiast. Recommendation: * * * * *

Very action filled and has many plot twists. An exciting read. Recommendation: * * * *

This story is a little strange because it takes place on a planet that has a society that is quite different from our own, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Recommendation: * * * *

Quite suspenseful. There were several plot twists and complications that made this story great. Also, the author knew what he was talking about, and that was very important because it dealt primarily with the science of stars. The only problem I had with it was that the crew kept refering to the shields as "screens", and it got a little annoying. Recommendation: * * * * 1/2.

Echoes has one of the most interesting story lines I have ever come across. A bit tragic and very well written. Recommendation: * * * * *

Written in first person, Fireship give you an unique look into Janeway's mind. You feel her frustration, her sorrow, and her triumph. I couldn't put this one down. Recommendation: * * * * *

This book contains interesting facts and theories about the biologic aspects of Star Trek. I especially liked the part where they point out some of the shows' bloopers like why Klingons went from smooth to rough foreheads and why everything that is inexplicable is blamed on viruses or beings that could never actually exist. Recommendation: * * * 1/2

Strange, a bit cruel, and packed with adventure. If you're into that stuff, then that's fine, but I didn't really like this one too much. Maybe because I thought it was a bit...juvenile. Recommendation: * *

Like all of Jeri Taylor's works, this is well written. I enjoyed reading it, especially because it gave an insight to Kathryn Janeway that wasn't revealed until this book came out. Recommendation: * * * * *

This book is one of my favorites. If you want to know more about the backgrounds on the characters of Voyager, this book is for you. If, because of some sick sense of humor, you like to see Voyager's crew suffer in a prison camp, this book is for you. Recommendation: * * * * *

I can't say enough good things about this book. The plot was exceptional, the characters were very real (especially Locken who reminded me of Hannible Lecter), and it was fascinating. I find it interesting that I never liked DS9 a whole lot, but the books blow me away. Recommendation: * * * * * * (okay, so there isn't supposed to be six, but it deserves it!)

Shadow contains exceptional imagery, mystery, and suspense. I absolutely loved reading this one! Recommendation: * * * * *

A variety of different kinds of stories from "some of star Trek's most talented fans". Many of the stories are done in perspectives I would have never thought of. Recommendation: * * * *

~The Metaphysics of Star Trek By Richard Hanley

Not a story, but extremely thought provoking. This book goes into detail about certain aspects of Star Trek and whether they are possible or not...such as "Is Data a person?" and a discussion about transporters. There are only a few parts in it about Voyager, but I loved it. If you're interested things like these, I highly suggest you read this book. Recommendation: * * * * *

I don't really like Christie Golden's books too much, but this one was actually enjoyable. (I couldn't even finish Seven of Nine, if that gives you any idea about my opinion on her writing...) This story's style is a little more sophisticated than her others, and it doesn't sound like some kid wrote it. It was easy reading for me, but it sparked my interest. Recommendation: * * * * 1/2

This one wasn't very good. There were many mistakes (such as the doctor being called Doc Zimmerman), and it's really dull as far as action goes. Funny, I think it's *supposed* to be an action story...atleast, that's how I saw it. Plus, to me it sounded like a combination of a few Voyager episodes (Concerning Flight, Resistance, and Prime Factors). Recommendation: *
