I haven't read them yet, but I have got them, they look promising.

If you look at it from a believability standpoint, they are kind of far-fetched. I mean, what are the chances that the Trek women are all important in the MU? And Annika in the Obsidian Order???
Still, they are well written.
Personally, I prefer Shatner's MU books.

I agree, Shatners are much better. But, I did like the Dark Passions books. Showed a whole new side to the womens personalities. And since Kira was in charge in DS9, and was obviously not straight, it is quite plausible that their would be alot of women in charge.

Shatners books? i thought he wrote just one. the obsidian order was far-feched but the over-all story line was not that bad.

I thought that the Dark Passions books were pretty good.

He wrote six books. Well, six in that series.

I read all of them, but found them to be a little kinky. They were okay, but I've read better. They had an interesting end at the last of the series.

these books did have a kinky ending but it didn't ruin the over all story.

I just started the ST:Voyager Dark Passion set of 2.
They certainly seem thought provoking!
