Characters good as they work towards recovering the transfer key that was stolen by spy in the last book. All while a treaty discussion is going on. ( ) Cliffhanger again! Happily the next and last installment is waiting at my local branch library.... Mack continues this 50th anniversary trilogy (to be distinguished from the Klingon one) with lots of action, betrayal and various skullduggery aimed at scuttling a Federation-Klingon peace conference. Dr. McCoy's daughter Joanna figures in the plot as well - not to mention a Human-Romulan spy and agents of the Orion syndicate. There is a nice blending of details from the television shows and novels to present a complex story. Oh, and there's the exiles in that other dimension. As I mentioned when reviewing Captain to Captain, a trilogy has been written by a collection of authors to honor the 50th anniversary of Star Trek which originally aired on September 8, 1966 (I'm writing this entry on September 8, 2016 which is quite apropos.). The Legacies trilogy continues with Best Defense written by David Mack. **There will be spoilers ahead if you haven't read the first book in the trilogy. I highly suggest you do so because it's an awesome story arc. If you don't want to be spoiled then I'll just say three words to describe this sequel: Tension, determination, and frustration. That should be enough to whet your appetite.** Captain Una has successfully used the Transfer Key to find her way to the alternate universe where her shipmates have been stranded for the past 18 years. However, it's not a simple locate and reconvene at the portal type of situation. There's something not quite right about this world... Meanwhile, Kirk and Spock are trying to retrieve the Key itself from the Romulans who stole it with the use of a spy on board the Enterprise. Without the Key they will be unable to rendezvous with Una and in the wrong hands the Key would be a formidable weapon. Amidst all of this chaos, Ambassador Sarek reaches out to the Enterprise to come to his aid in the peace talks which are taking place between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. As you can imagine, things are not exactly smooth sailing for our favorite space explorers. If you couldn't tell, I'M LOVING IT. The conclusion to the trilogy should be up soon as I started it this morning. :-) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
