Millennium: The Fall of Terok Nor

For any true DS9 fan, you'll enjoy this book. The characters come to life, and it's entertaining to hear Quark's thoughts and revealing to hear Sisko's ambivalence of being the emissary to the prophets. The only thing that annoyed me was the overuse of exposition; however, as others mentioned, the authors were probably thinking about readers who are't familiar with this DS9 universe. If you want a light-hearted, fun read, you'll enjoy this story for the characters and how they use humor to get through dire situations. This has always been a prominent feature of the DS9 series, and the authors do an excellent job of executing the humorous--and oftentimes pointless banter which readers will either detest or love. There's a definite show more spiritual theme which classifies this story as visionary fiction. Sisko, and his role as an emissary to the Bajoran's prophets also plays into this theme. While other characters debate over the prophets versus "wormhole aliens" explanation, Sisko never commits to an opinion, allowing his experiences to guide him rather than dogma. The debate over the nature of the prophets continues in this book and peaks in the third act with a surprise appearance from another famous Star Trek character. I'm interested to see how this all plays out. show less

Quark is charged with murder. Two dead bodies are found that were left when the Cardassians left Terok Nor.
I didn't like some of how Vash was portrayed.
It is the beginning of a trilogy.
