    About this ebook

    CARDASSIA. Ravaged by the Dominion War which its leaders helped to begin, this once proud and xenophobic planet is the last place Miles and Keiko O'Brien thought they would build a life. But Cardassia's struggle to make itself anew and to throw off the legacy of its imperial past is hampered by those who prefer the old traditions. Una McCormick weaves a tale which brilliantly captures a world of contradictions: the need to atone and the steely darkness that share the Cardassian soul.

    ANDOR. From one of the best-known worlds in the Star Trek universe to one of the least. Heather Jarman brings the exotic Andor suberbly to life, with its four sexes, its complex social dilemmas and its ancient, mysterious past.

      This book contains two distinct stories. The first based in Cardaissa is horrible and boring. McCormack uses too much italics, and "quotes" thoughts. Its like Star Wars Pre-quell that sits and looks at how their government works, but its slow. Some kid attempts to blow up parliament to make the foreigners leave Cardassia. It sounds dramatic but its written so poorly that its not. The second story, however, is fantastic. The first time in my life I found a Star Trek love story believable, unforced and enthralling. Prynn and Shar both lost loved ones on their trip to the Gamma quadrant and their support of each other leads to a love that is unknown. There is struggles with sexuality (Andorians have 4 sexes, so how does a "male" Andorian mate with a female human) family (Androian commitment to raise and support andorian children) genetics (could we eliminate two of our sexes to make the people live) politics (and not boring politics like in the first story) action, adventure, death, destruction, and actually cried, I don't know if I've ever got that level of emotional attachment to a book before. Its a shame I have to give a single rating to the whole book, as the first story deserves a 1 1/2, while the second deserves a 5+, so I give the book a three.

      The saga of DS9 continues in this first volume of a series set on the homeworlds of various characters. Una McCormack follows the new careers of Garak and the O’Briens on Cardassia while Heather Jarman takes us to Andor where we learn more about Shar and Prynn Tenmei. Both are satisfying reads and I look forward to new volumes.Published in paperback by Pocket Books.
