Description

Discover more about the Star Trek planets Trill and Bajor with these two sweeping and unputdownable stories starring Ezri Dax, Kira Nerys, and Benjamin Sisko of the space station Deep Space Nine. They are a people with secrets in Trill. For centuries, they kept their true nature hidden, even taking disturbing steps to protect the small population of near-immortal symbionts with whom a privileged few Trill are joined, body, mind, and soul. They are a people who hold memory to be sacred, yet show more deny their own past. Now amid a whirlwind of scandal, accusations, and civil unrest, Ezri Dax must penetrate millennia of lies and deceptions, and rediscover what should never have been forgotten. Meanwhile, in Bajor, the honeymoon is over. Following the euphoria of Bajor's entry into the Federation, the real business of making that union work has begun. But even on a world where politics and religion are intertwined, conflicting visions of Bajor's role in the interstellar arena divide the planet's leadership. As newly minted Captain Kira Nerys sets the tone for the kind of Starfleet officer she will be, First Minister Asarem makes a bold move to define Bajor's voice in the Federation, while the returned Benjamin Sisko prepares for a future that only he, as yet, can see. show less

Like the last book in this series there are two separate stories by two separate authors. Also like the last book one is really good and one is not. The first story takes place on Trill and focuses on the aftermath of the parasites attack from Unity and political and civil turmoil that resulted. It was incredibly entertaining, and like Left Hand of Destiny there is some great back story with one entirely unbelievable scene.

The second story focusestakes place on Bajor and focuses in the Sisko family in their new home. The author tries really hard to be creative but in the end its nearly 300 pages to tell us that Jake Sisko has a new love interest, and she tries to give us a surprise ending. I am looking forward to see how other Start Tek show more authors take the story, but on its own it wouldn't be worth reading. show less
Andy Mangels and Michael A. Martin contribute a tale about Ezri Dax and the secrets of Trill, while J. Noah Kim provides a story about Kira, the Sisko family, and Bajor. Both are intimate and fascinating. A must read if you have been following the DS9 relaunch.
