I thoroughly enjoyed this book and really liked the themes of environmentalism and unification. It does get a bit muddled at times, and bringing in this twist of a terrorist attack that is really just a deus ex machina to solve one of the major problems (relocating an entire world of people quickly) was a bit sloppy as a conclusion I felt. But overall it was engaging and I did get into the drama of the Alajians and Etolosians that is hard to do when they are not a part of the canon Trek world. All the characters were written well and true to their characters. If you like The Next Generation, you will probably like this book.
Moderate: Violence
Minor: Animal cruelty
