Not hypermemorable, but definitely a fun read, featuring Cardassians and Ferengi straight out of DS9 interacting with the TNG crew. I really enjoyed the secondary character of Shrev, a very insectoid crewmember. A typical Star Trek novel. In this case the Ferengi have taken over a planet, basically enslaving the native population. So, the Enterprise is sent to the planet to find out what is going on. They get to take a former 20th Century Businessman turned Ferengi Ambassador along too (he, Ralph Offenhouse was found in suspended animation by the Enterprise and saved) That part was weird in some ways, because some of the ‘history’ stuff that he had the Enterprise crew was so totally wrong. Anyway. There are lots of twists and turns along the way, most of them quite predictable. There was quite a lot of Worf and Data in this one, which was okay, but not a lot of Beverly or Deanna, which was unfortunate. On the other hand I was very surprised at just how much Wes there was in the novel. Not to mention the author sorta got his character right (not that the writers on the show were every subtle with Wesley Crusher’s character). The new characters were interesting too and overall (except for the whole calling Alex Al, which drive me crazy). I thought that the characters were a strong part of this story. On the not as great side I did have a problem with the Yoda speak that the natives spoke in. Yes, towards the end it was explained and well explained, but I kept picturing Yoda when anyone spoke and that was distracting. Overall I liked the book. It was a solid Star Trek Novel, even if the plot was not overly inventive or a surprisingly twisty. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
