This felt like an extremely lightweight novel. There just wasn't much in it to me because it spent so much time establishing the characters. It was interesting to see a crew which hadn't gelled yet, and I liked that aspect of it. Still, ultimately it felt like an episode of the show that had been stretched to give insight into more character thoughts - fine, but nothing to write home about.

I saw this sitting on my Kindle and decided to give it a shot. I guess I can blame most of the character differentiation on the age of the book, and the fact that they were dealing with season one characters. Still, it gave me the feeling that the author just didn't "get it" in parts. Oh, and warp 13? Hrm.... ( )

Totally unexpected from a `Star Trek'-series, this story actually triggers the reader to think about the euthanasia and the very definitions of the concepts of life and death.

Entertaining read, but no world-class literature. :-) ( )

No one sounds like themselves and Riker's a dick. Nice. ( )
