adventurous tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

After a slow start with part 1 this book gets straight in with the action. 
Complicated plot with lots of double crossing but action packed and engaging. 
Nice to see Tuvok and even Sulu briefly, again.

Three and a half. For a nearly 400 page novel both books so far in this trilogy have seemed a bit light on story. I was actually wondering what would be left to tell in part three, but a fun plot twist right at the end gives me hope that the final book will be an exciting conclusion.

This is a good series, but a bit too drawn out and a bit too far fetched in the plot. The Federation never consider the obvious reasons behind the threat to the Accords. I've enjoyed it, but am looking forward to it concluding!

It was a good story, definitely different (in tone) from the previous novel. I look forward to reading the final book within this trilogy.

The characters that I enjoyed in this book were: Worf, especially when he was teaching the young female Klingon. Tuvok when he was learning about Houdini and Admiral Riker. The rest were okay.
