I thought that universe was pretty awesome... I loved the alternate Kira, she totally rocked...sounds like a decent read...

"A time to..." series is great. I've read a time to: -Be Born and -Sow by now and I'm reading a time to Die right now. This series is great.

My favourite is "Klingon", a very thrilling DS9-TNG-crossover novel in which Gowron tries to improve the relationships between Starfleet and the Klingon empire by teaching his human audience about the Klingon way of life, using the story of how his godson Pok discovered the murderers of his father as an example. Like every good teacher, Gowron wants to make sure his audience has understood what he tries to say and so he keeps asking questions unexpectedly. Of all people he picks Reg Barclay as his test person.
A both thrilling and funny murder mystery which reveals a lot about how Klingons think and feel.

I'm not a fan of The Original Series nor that era of movies (and more recently, not a fan of Trek literature at all) but one Trek read that really stood out for me was "The Ashes of Eden" Can recommend it if you're looking for a good Star Trek read and don't mind which series

The voyager books are the worst books. They all seem to have the same story. the ones ive ready anyway. The DS9 relaunch is the best.

The best Trek book I've read---to the best of my memory---was unquestionably DS9: A Stitch In Time. Its pretty much Garak's autobiography, and it far outclasses pretty much *anything* else..



I have to agree Stitch was very good, TNG books about dominion war were very good helped fill in the holes between movies and when watching the war on ds9 they never said a word about the flag ship But my all time best books were the 2 part Eugenics war rise and fall of KHAN!!! and to reign in hell the exile of khan, By Greg Cox

I loved the Eugenics war books... and I also like the DS9 relaunch series.

This may seem sad, but I also love The Physics of Star Trek
