so far its been great Cutler has interduce Mayweather and co to the world of RPG.

While at the same time the ship is abut to make first contact with a race even more struchard thatn the Vulcans

I have it. It's quite good though I actually preferred the storylines about the RPG rather than the aliens lol. Have you read any of the other Enterprise books? I've read them all apart from the latest one, "Daedalus".

I've just got Daedalus.
I'm only on the second chapter but so far so good. I like how the writer refers to events that occured in episodes.

Maybe spoilers, I don't know...don't read this if you don't want to risk it!!!

It was a good book but I would have preferred it if it covered more characters than just Trip. I actually thought Hoshi might have an important role here...but no she's just ill for the duration and remains "off-screen". Hopefully this might change for the next book.

Also, Dave Stern's books repeatedly refer to Enterprise (this has happened in What Price Honor and now Daedalus) having "Photon Torpedoes" despite the novels being set pre-"The Xindi". Both state that they are set in Season 2. Grrrr. Annoying little continuity errors. In "What Price Honor", it says the NX-01 has "Fusion Torpedoes" as well...hmm what be they then?

Sorry, forgot to add this last time, you'll need to highlight the text to read it...
